Xen Orchestra and guest utilities on Fedora 36, XCP-ng 8.2
-
Hello, I have some issues with the xen orchestra reporting no data on networking despite the fact I installed the guest utilities them. Indeed the same issue is on xcp-ng center. Do you have any idea what could be wrong? I checked the github of the upstream repository and it wasn't updated in years.
P.S. I submitted a bug report to fedora bugzilla, will keep posted if they can solve it. As this isn't just for one VM. I have 2 servers, and both the same issue

@adriangabura you did a good sum-up.
That's why we started to rewrite it from scratch (in fact, we started... this week!)
See https://gitlab.com/xen-project/xen-guest-agent
The goal is to provide a full upstream repo, not just owned by Citrix but by the whole Xen project, and being active/fast to modify it.
Without talking about the current code base which is... not great

Hi! I wished to update that the Fedora 36 guest utilities provide now the networking data, they fixed the issue.

I think it's "because" we fixed it upstream and then Fedora packaged the fix in their latest update
