Hi, installing is quite simple: 1. Install SPICE Windows guest tools from http://www.spice-space.org/download.html -> this also install virtio-serial driver, which are required for the next steps 2. Follow this guide: http://www.ovirt.org/OVirt_Guest_Agent_For_Windows If you can't start the service the issue may be because of missing virtio-serial drivers. If you're sure they are installed, reboot the vm as Windows sometimes requires a reboot for drivers to work properly. If you want single-sign-on feature please let me know how you managed to do this, as I don't know it myself... Regards, René On 06/06/2014 02:14 PM, Karli Sjöberg wrote:

Is there some special trick to get the windows guest agent to
install properly? I have the service installed but it wont start. Perhaps someone made a youtube video of the install. I saw some prior posts where other were having issues but when they asked for helped they got the old RTFM answer. The problem is the FM seems to be missing some steps. Any help would be appreciated.

You have to be in ovirt-guest-agent/ovirt-guest-agent and in this directoy is a setup.py (and also the README-windows.txt as mentioned in oVirt wiki) file. It worked for me the last time I did this - haven't tried it today...

Cool, didn't know that there's already an ISO available. I just tried it and oVirt Guest Tools Installers says "Unsupported Windows version" for my Windows Server 2012 R2 vm. Is this known or should I open a bugreport for this?

Just gave this a try on Windows Server 2008 R2, and it worked almost perfectly! The one small problem I had: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1105624 Service was configured with Type Manual rather than Autostart, so did not restart upon reboot. Easy workaround. Thanks guys - this will be an enormous help! :) -Bob P.S. On my system the "What would you like me to do with this CD?" AutoPlay dialog has a goofy option - "Import photos and videos (Using Dropbox)". Not sure if that's something you can control. On 06/06/2014 09:56 AM, Sandro Bonazzola wrote:

Hi Bob, Thanks for your feedback. We fixed the issue and the new version of oVirt WGT ISO (3.5-2 alpha) is now available from the oVirt website: http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-master-snapshot-static/iso/ovirt-guest-... as well is the updated installer: http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-master-snapshot-static/exe/ovirt-guest-... Please also note that currently upgrades between versions require to manually stop all the relevant services (Spice and oVirt Agents) before performing an upgrade, we're working on getting this fixed as well. Thanks in advance, Lev Veyde. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bob Doolittle" <bob@doolittle.us.com> To: "Sandro Bonazzola" <sbonazzo@redhat.com>, "Maurice James" <mjames@media-node.com>, "Joop" <jvdwege@xs4all.nl> Cc: "Lev Veyde" <lveyde@redhat.com>, users@ovirt.org Sent: Friday, June 6, 2014 5:44:42 PM Subject: Re: [ovirt-users] Spam Re: Spam Re: Spam Windows guest agent Just gave this a try on Windows Server 2008 R2, and it worked almost perfectly!
