Description Dan Kenigsberg 2020-11-19 12:32:25 UTC
Description of problem:
https://alt.fedoraproject.org/cloud/ includes Cloud Base image for Openstack which is intended to ease the usage of Fedora on OpenStack. To improve the integration with OpenStack and other VM management systems (oVirt, KubeVirt), each user would have to install and enable qemu-guest-agent on it before usage.

Please help our consumers and enable qemu-guest-agent in the OpenStack image.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Fedora 33

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Import https://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/33/Cloud/x86_64/images/Fedora-Cloud-Base-33-1.2.x86_64.qcow2 to KubeVirt (or oVirt or OpenShift)

Actual results:
Guest-provided data (IP addresses, logged in users) are available

Expected results:
qemu-guest-agent is running out-of-the box

Additional info:
This can be worked around by each end user with

# dnf install qemu-guest-agent
# systemctl enable --now qemu-guest-agent

but the whole point of having a Cloud Base Image is to provide the best user experience out of the box.
