os-xen 1.2_1 not detected

[jcdick1]

I have OPNsense 23.1.4_1-amd64 running under XCP-NG 8.2.1 and have the os-xen 1.2_1 guest utilities installed, which apparently is the latest, as no update is available.  However, XCP and Xen Orchestra report no guest utilities installed, and there is no os-xen service listed on the dashboard for start/restart/stop.  There are a couple of processes running that would seem to be xen-related:

Code Select Expand

0    16     0 3 -16  0       0     16 waitev   SL    -      0:19.78 [xenwatch]
0    17     0 2 -16  0       0     16 xbread   IL    -      0:00.05 [xenstore_rcv]

but again, the hypervisor isn't seeing them installed.

Any ideas on getting the hypervisor to recognize the tools?  I need to migrate my router VM to another host so I can patch.

Thanks!
