Sorry, that was a typo. But, it is still not working. (For some reason, I
had to move to Windows2012 with name vm_win_05).
[root@sdsr720-14 virtio-win]# echo "{'execute':'guest-ping'}" | socat
stdio,ignoreeof /var/lib/libvirt/qemu/g05.agent
{"return": {}}
[root@sdsr720-14 virtio-win]# virsh qemu-agent-command vm_win_05 '{
"execute":"guest-ping"}'
[root@sdsr720-14 virtio-win]#
