A proposed use case for the guest-agent: live migration. QEMU requires the guest agent to be able to perform live migration functions.

Hi folks,
Is there any progress with this package/port ?

Regards

Carlos

The check is simple: is there a portable software in the FreeBSD ports tree with only the guest agent and little to no dependencies?

yes -> there is progress
no -> there is no progress

Hi folks.

Is there  any  ETA for add this plugin?

Regards

Please Open a request in GitHub, better to track

Please please please bark up the right tree, https://github.com/aborche/qemu-guest-agent is *not* in FreeBSD ports and we don't want to maintain it in our tree with all of the qemu update stuff going on in FreeBSD...

Since a few day it's available in freebsd ports, perhaps worth a look  ;)

As promised... but Frank beat me to it. ;)
