Hi,

I am new in oVirt and I'd like to get the clarification about the packages which support the function of Window guest agent from 4.2 release and how to build it.

Welcome to oVirt community! The Windows Guest Agent is shipped within the Windows Guest Tools ISO. The reference documentation page is [1] https://ovirt.org/documentation/vmm-guide/chap-Installing_Windows_Virtual_Ma... The feature documentation page is [2] https://ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/integration/windows-gu... If you have issues while following above [1] please check if [2] solve your issue and open a ticket on https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-site/issues reporting any trouble you had following the documentation page.

I looked through the document from ovirt.org <http://ovirt.org>, such as

https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/internal/guest-agent/guest-agent-for-win...

It mentioned:

/With the release of oVirt 3.5 we have introduced the oVirt WGT (Windows Guest Tools)./

//

/The oVirt WGT provides an ISO with all the tools and drivers one needs to install on a Windows VM, with an easy to use installer to install it all in one step./

//

/So manual compilation and installation of oVirt Guest Agent is no longer necessary./

//

/The oVirt WGT ISO is included in //ovirt-guest-tools-iso-3.5-7.noarch.rpm <http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-3.5/rpm/fc20/noarch/ovirt-guest-tools-iso-3.5-7.noarch.rpm>//package./

Now, ovirt-guest-tools-iso is up to 4.2.4. I found the src rpm from https://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-4.2/rpm/el7/SRPMS/ovirt-guest-tools-is..., but I could not find ovirt-guest-tools-iso from github, only found ovirt-wgt.

After clone the ovirt-wgt, I got the SPICE-tools-0.141.iso built.

My question is :

1. Is ovirt-wgt used for Windows guest?

ovirt-wgt is a project for building the oVirt Guest Tools ISO and its wrapping RPM. It contains VirtIO Windows drivers, SPICE drivers, QEMU Guest Agent and oVirt Guest Agent.

2. If so, how can I build ovirt-guest-tools-iso package or ovirt-tools-setup.iso

You don't really need to, but if you want to do that: $ sudo yum install https://resources.ovirt.org/pub/yum-repo/ovirt-release42.rpm $ git clone https://gerrit.ovirt.org/ovirt-wgt $ cd ovirt-wgt $ yum install `cat automation/build-artifacts.packages` $ automation/build-artifacts.sh

should do the build.

By following your instruction, I had ovirt-wgt build work, but it required ovirt-guest-agent-windows package. I tried to build ovirt-guest-agent-windows from ovirt-guest-agent (git clone https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-guest-agent.git), failed with the error message attached. I was wondering if the build env missed libs or packages. I run the build from Linux env(Fedora), could it be an issue? Would you mind send me the build instruction? Thanks, Jingjie

Current builds are available: https://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-4.2/iso/oVirt-toolsSetup/4.2-4.el7/ https://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-4.2/rpm/el7/noarch/ovirt-guest-tools-i...

Thanks,

Jingjie
