Description Michal Skrivanek 2019-12-11 13:36:52 UTC 
Windows Update functionality is coming. We shall modify our guest identification to make it work

Presumably only for 4.4 cluster level as we need to change SMBIOS strings
Comment 4 Beni Pelled 2020-04-16 15:55:32 UTC 
Verified with:
- RHV 4.4.0-0.32.master.el8ev
- libvirt-6.0.0-17.module+el8.2.0+6257+0d066c28.x86_64
- vdsm-4.40.13-1.el8ev.x86_64

Verification steps:
1. Create a Windows VM and attach windows installation file (in my case en_windows_10_enterprise_x64_dvd_6851151.iso)
2. Once the installation is done, if needed, install the network driver (NETWORK ONLY) by guest-tools disk
3. Run windows update

Result:
- VirtIO drivers installed successfully by windows update.

NOTE: the installation has done with SATA drive since VirtIO/VirtIO-SCSI requires
an additional device for the disk drivers during the installation (even though the
NIC is e1000 type)
