Note that what Nir was referring to [1,2] is not something new, is
unrelated to the original question (the warning shown when connecting using
a spice console to a VM with no guest agent has nothing to do with its
high-availability) and is indeed minor.

Back to the original question, I'm afraid there is no way to prevent this
warning today.

BTW Misak, you should be able to get the guest agent running in FreeBSD 11,
