Exclamation mark on Windows guests Ovirt 3.6.5
Why do all my windows guests display an exclamation mark with the message 'Actual operating system type differs from the configuration' They don't. There is a variety of Windows OS installed from XP to Server 2102 all configured correctly. My linux VM's don't have an exclamation mark I installed the QEMU guest tools on an XP guest. No difference. vdsClient -s 0 getVmStats <vm-id> show no obvious difference between the Windows and linux guests.

Hi Darryl, do you have an ovirt guest agent installed on your guests? If yes, could you please check in webadmin in VM main tab -> pick your VM which show this exclamation mark -> guest info subtab -> what is in "type" part? Thanx, Tomas ----- Original Message -----

Hi Darryl, This drove me nuts too. For some reason the guest drivers were missing something (still don't know for sure). I tried changing timezones, etc. Finally I found the "oVirt-toolsSetup_3.6.0_0.2_master.fc22.iso" The setup on that image worked with Windows 7 Enterprise, Windows 10 Enterprise and Windows Server 2012r2. My exclamation marks are gone. Good luck, Jack -----Original Message----- From: users-bounces@ovirt.org [mailto:users-bounces@ovirt.org] On Behalf Of Tomas Jelinek Sent: Wednesday, May 11, 2016 12:07 AM To: Darryl Bond <dbond@nrggos.com.au> Cc: users <users@ovirt.org> Subject: Re: [ovirt-users] Exclamation mark on Windows guests Ovirt 3.6.5 Hi Darryl, do you have an ovirt guest agent installed on your guests?

What was the previous version you had installed? Note it’s not the correct one, latest is http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-3.6/rpm/el7/noarch/ovirt-guest-tools-is...

There seems to be some issue in the repo, the right version to be used with 3.6 is at http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-3.6/rpm/el7/ovirt-guest-tools-iso-3.6-3... You can ignore the fcxx part…it’s not significant at all as those packages are not part of Fedora nor contain any release dependent code, it’s just an iso inside to be used on Windows it shouldn’t matter for the exclamation mark problem though, that fix was on the engine side and it works with older guest agents as well (not too old, still should be at least some 3.6:)
