Hi,
I want to be able to install RPM packages (available in host system at some
path) to the online guest VM and want this facility to be available as a
tool.
I am thinking of having a gemu guest agent (qemu-ga) running inside guest
VM. I did not find any available command ("virsh qemu-agent-command
<guest_vm> ...") which can do the same.
I am planning to implement a command in qemu guest agent, which I can
invoke from virsh like below.
"virsh qemu-agent-command vm_01 \
'{"execute":"guest-rpm-
install", \
"arguments":{"path":"/usr/local/bin/ABC.rpm"}}
I am able to pass arguments from host to guest VM but how am I supposed to
pass the whole RPM image from host to guest (which the guest agent can
receive and install)?
Basically, I want to know how can we do following in QEMU environment.
1. take some bulky file from host to guest
2. perform some operation on that file
3. get the result of that operation.
