Subject: [PATCH] windows: delay installation of qemu-ga MSI
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Instead of running firstboot script during early boot schedule a task
delayed for 2 minutes.
During the first boot, after virt-v2v conversion, Windows installs the
drivers injected by virt-v2v. When this installation is finished
Windows enforces some kind of internal reboot. This unfortunately
terminates any running firstboot scripts thus killing the installation
of qemu-ga MSI.
This is just a best-effort mitigation. It can still happen (e.g. with
slow disk drives) that the drivers are not yet installed when the
delayed installation starts. On the other hand we cannot delay it too
much otherwise we risk that the users logs in and will be doing some
work when the MSI installation starts. After MSI installation finishes
the VM needs to be rebooted which would be annoying if that would happen
under users hands. Although this is not a best fix (that may come later
as it is more complex, e.g. introducing waiting mechanism), the delay as
it is defined works in most cases. And it dramaticaly improves the
situations -- originaly I experienced more than 90% failure rate.
