Installation of XCP Guest tool frivers on RHEL9
-
Hello,
Are the XCP Guest tool drivers supported on RHEL 9? I am having a challenge getting them installed. Installation of the guest tools provided by XCP-ng completes but the drivers are still shown as not configured. I have tried on several vms running RHEL9 and all behave the same. Hypervisor version is XCP-ng 8.2.1

@Denson You can mount from the CD in Xen Orchestra on the Console tab or install from the EPEL repo. (I always install from EPEL)
EPEL install:
dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-9.noarch.rpm -yTool install:
dnf install xe-guest-utilities-latest -y
Be sure to enable and start after installing:systemctl enable --now xe-linux-distribution -
@ThasianXi This worked well, thank you for the feedback!

@Denson You're welcome; glad to help.

Using EPEL's package is fine, but the tools provided by XCP-ng should work too. Was your pool fully up to date when you tested?
-
@stormi It was a fresh install of 8.2.1. No updates had been applied.

Then I would try again after installing all updates.
