Re: [libvirt] Facing problems in running QEMU guest agents in Windows 2008 guest machine.

Hi, I have a CenOS host machine running KVM and a Windows 2008 guest machine. I am able to run "qemu-monitor-command" but not "qemu-agent-command". [root@sdsr720-14 Windows_ISO]# virsh qemu-monitor-command --hmp vm_win_05 'info network' Devices not on any VLAN: hostnet0: fd=23 peer=net0 net0: model=virtio-net-pci,macaddr=52:54:00:7f:4a:5b peer=hostnet0 [root@sdsr720-14 Windows_ISO]# virsh qemu-agent-command vm_win_05 '{"execute":"guest-ping"}' [root@sdsr720-14 Windows_ISO]# [QEMU guest installation] To install QEMU guest agent, I followed steps mentioned at following URL http://wiki.qemu.org/Features/QAPI/GuestAgent#Example_usage [Problem-1] "qemu-ga.exe -s install" runs silently, "net start qemu-ga" gave error.
