hello,
in my windows vm i installed qemu-guest-agent and rebootet the vm.
In the settings for the vm i set via virt-manager a new channel "unix
socket" "org.qemu.guest_agent.0" "virtio".
when i try to do a snapshot via shell i get:
virsh snapshot-create-as --domain win7new win7new-snap1 --disk-only
--atomic --quiesce
error: Guest agent is not responding: Guest agent not available for now
I use gentoo on the Host.
qemu is built with useflags:
aio alsa caps curl fdt filecaps gtk iscsi
jpeg lzo ncurses nls numa pin-upstream-blobs png python sdl seccomp
smartcard ssh threads tls usb usbredir uuid vde
vhost-net virtfs vnc xattr xfs
libvirt: audit caps fuse iscsi libvirtd lvm lxc
macvtap nls numa parted pcap policykit qemu udev vepa virt-network
thanks for any tipps and hints.

In Windows Logs i found entries saying; "could not start guest-agent because reaching timeout (3000ms)" Any ideas how to get the the guestagent running? thanks

On trying to install them windows "always" crashes. tried: virtio-win-0.1.109-2/ virtio-win-0.1.105-1/ virtio-win-0.1.102/ virtio-win-0.1.96/ windows is always crashing. how do install this drivers? marko

Have you tried windows drivers packaged by Fedora? http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/WindowsGuestDrivers/Download_Drivers Michal
