ovirt-guest-agent is still needed?
Hello, I heard that ovirt-guest-agent is now deprecated and qemu-guest-agent should be used instead. As today I still install the ovirt-guest-agent from EPEL in my EL guests, but should I continue doing this or using the shipped qemu-guest-agent should be used instead? What about Windows guests? Any modification needed? Thanks,
Hi, ovirt-guest-agent isn't deprecated yet, so you can still use it in 4.3 no problem. Best wishes, Greg On Mon, Feb 11, 2019 at 2:33 PM Vinícius Ferrão <ferrao@versatushpc.com.br> wrote:

qemu-guest-agent has always been used, it’s a dependency of ovirt-guest-agent. The only thing we are changing is that we moved features down from ovirt-ga to qemu-ga so it is less and less important to run also ovirt-ga in addition. The biggest difference is SSO support, if you need/want SSO you still want ovirt-ga, otherwise it doesn’t matter much and qemu-ga alone should work as good as qemu-ga+ovirt-ga.

Thank you Michal. I wasn’t aware of the SSO option. It looked really awesome. Coming from XenServer I’ve never seen this kind of feature. I will continue installing the package from EPEL, and definitely gonna try the feature. Thanks, Sent from my iPhone
