Description Lev Veyde 2013-11-20 13:18:21 UTC 
Description of problem:

Due to the changes in the upstream Qemu Guest Agent, specifically addition of the support for VSS.

That required a creation of a separate 64-bit installer for it.

Currently I'm checking our options, including integrating RHEL Qemu-GA installer as part of the WGT installation, and the changes required to do that.

Comment 3 Ondra Machacek 2014-01-14 09:18:20 UTC 
Ok in is31 and RHEV-toolsSetup_3.3_9.
It installs 64b version of qemu-ga with vss.
