Setting up the QEMU Guest agent

This is needed for a variety of reasons... more later on this.

Installation on Ubuntu/Debian

As root:

  1. apt update
  2. apt upgrade
  3. apt install qemu-guest-agent
  4. apt enable qemu-guest-agent

No, we aren't starting it yet. First go to the GUI and enable QEMU on the guest.

In the ProxMox VE GUI (WEB)

  1. Select the VM
  2. Select Options for the VM
  3. Check the "Use QEMU Guest Agent" and "Run guest-trim after a disk move or VM migration" and click OK.

Now it will show the following:
