IIRC the services provided by the open-vm-tools package are specific to guests on vmware installations. Such is enabled by default but fails silently for anything other than a vmware guest. However, because we are talking proxmox what we should be concerned with is enabling and configuring the qemu guest agent (seen in your screenshot) which in almost all use-cases is not functional out of the box (regardless that qemu guest agent is only started for qemu guests after some virt-what
introspection). Please see this issue thread for hinting on how to get that working: https://github.com/rancher/k3os/issues/291#issuecomment-560246793. Additionally, please note that this thread predates the switch to udev and so the org.qemu.guest_agent.#
device(s) under the /dev
hierarchy (I forget the sub-path) should show up automatically which may help make the setup of the GA_PATH
envvar in the /etc/conf.d/qemu-guest-agent
configuration file less error-prone.
See also /etc/conf.d/qemu-guest-agent.orig
on a running system which I think gets copied (possibly moved) to /etc/conf.d/qemu-guest-agent
if virt-what
indicates a qemu/kvm guest.
Thanks for your time and the explanation and not just simply tagging my issue as a duplicate and closing it :)
When I deploy k3os on Proxmox I see open-vm-tools and QEMU Guest Agent Starting![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/5204724/128676530-ff02d4fe-6afa-4f1b-9276-3d347930e391.png)
But at the end Proxmox is unable to manage the VM![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/5204724/128676616-63509451-5caa-454c-8859-386ee7e7f5b2.png)
It results than k3os have to be kill when I stop Proxmox and the backup from Proxmox fail for the VM.
