VirtIO Serial Step:

>> Hi Andrea
>>
>>
>>
>> Triple Check
>>
>>
>>
>> When the path is wrong we get this type of message:
>>
>>
>>
>> "Windows could not start the Balloon Service on Local Computer.
>>
>>
>>
>> Error2: The system cannot find the file specified."
>>
>>
>>
>> But in this case, we get:
>>
>>
>>
>> "The OVirt Guest Service on Local Computer started and then stopped. Some
>> services stop automatically if they are not in use in use by other services
>> or programs."
>>
>>
>>
>> ¿ Maybe a oVirt bug ?

>> Hello Juliàn,
>>

>> C:\Program Files (x86)\oVirt Guest Tools\OVirtGuestService.exe

>> ? The configured service path must exactly match the real one.

>> Hi Andrea
>>
>> I tried with this solution:

>> https://www.mail-archive.com/users@ovirt.org/msg37420.html
>>
>> And I input this orders:
>>
>>
>> Balloon Service oVirt 3.6:
>>
>> sc config BalloonService binpath= "C:\Program Files (x86)\oVirt Guest
>> Tools\drivers\Balloon\2k12R2\amd64\blnsvr.exe" DisplayName= "Balloon
>> Service oVirt 3.6" start= auto
>>
>> SPICE:
>>
>> sc config vdservice binpath= "C:\Program Files (x86)\oVirt Guest
>> Tools\64\vdservice.exe" DisplayName= "SPICE VDAgent" start= auto
>>
>> oVirt Service:
>>
>> sc config OVirtGuestService binpath= "C:\Program Files (x86)\oVirt Guest
>> Tools\OVirtGuestService.exe" DisplayName= "OVirt Guest Service" start= auto
>>
>> This solution corrects the BalloonService error, but oVirt Service
>> doesn't work yet:
>>
>> "The OVirt Guest Service on Local Computer started and then stopped. Some
>> services stop automatically if they are not in use in use by other services
