Is it possible to install the XCP guest tools into SFOS 21?

marcoi

I am current running SFOS 21.0.0 as a VM on XCP-NG. Is it possible or recommended to install the XCP guest tools?

In linux for example, the process would be mount tool iso to vm, then mount /dev/cdrom to /mnt then run the install script.

As far as I can tell, when i log into SFOS shell, there does not seem to be a /dev/cdrom.

    We are not allowing other plugins to be installed to SFOS.

    Hi Marcoi,

    as XCP is based on XenServer, you should be able to use the XenServer Image.

      I did try spinning up a new vm using the image for XEN, but the tools did not appear to be installed as part of the install. I used

      VI-21.0.0_GA.XEN-169.zip. If anyone has experience with xen app install on xpc can they confirm the guest tools show up or not?
