Hi,

well I can use the guest agent for ubuntu 12.04 (precise)
really well on a debian 7 64 bit.

I can confirm this - precise package works fine on Debian.

Hi Rene,Sven, ea,


How did you get it to actually work? I got the deb from
(http://ppa.launchpad.net/zhshzhou/vdsm-ubuntu/ubuntu/pool/main/o/ovirt-guest-agent/ovirt-guest-agent_1.0.9.20140216.git5168c4-1ppa1_all.deb)
, since I'm not willing to add ubuntu sources to my apt-configuration
since that might make me run into dependency troubles later on.

This one works fine with Debian:

https://launchpad.net/~zhshzhou/+archive/vdsm-ubuntu/+files/ovirt-guest-agent_1.0.8.201309301944.gitb7f8f2-1ppa1_all.deb

The version you try to use is for Ubuntu 13.10.


Regards,
René



After downloading and dpkg -i'ing it, I ran an apt-get -f install in
order to get the dependencies. Then I reran dpkg:


root@host:~# dpkg -i

There's a configfile regarding initscripts in /etc/init,  but no such
thing on the sste, (I just had a look at the contents of the ubuntu
package too).
How did you resolve this? Creating my own initscript isn't that hard but
it sucks when it comes to having a maintainable setup...


Cheers,

Boudewijn

René,
do you have a list of distro's / agent you work with?

I have the following guests:
RHEL 6          - guest agent from EPEL
CentOS 6        - guest agent from EPEL
RHEL 5          - guest agent from RHEL repositories
Fedora 20       - guest agent from Fedora repository
Solaris 10      - no guest agent
Solaris 11      - no guest agent
Ubuntu 12.04    - guest agent from launchpad
Debian 7        - guest agent from launchpad (Ubuntu Precise)

I don't have openSUSE running on my new setup anymore, but guest agent from build.opensuse.org did work fine. SLES 11 didn't work.


Regards,
René


We may want to update the wiki with the list you have.

Thanks,
Doron
