This is good, but it may be that in some specific situations Citrix drivers behave better (None known at the moment). ➕ ➖ The sources for the drivers are from the Xen project directly, without additional Citrix patches.➕ The drivers can be updated through Windows Update.➕ Benefit from all the testing by Citrix QA team.The important point is not to mix them in the same VM. There exists two different set of tools that you can use on your VMs: the official tools from Citrix Hypervisor, or the fully open-source tools from XCP-ng. The management agent brings more manageability of the VM from XCP-ng, and guest metrics reporting to the host.The device drivers bring optimized I/O performances.Windows guests need both the device drivers and the management agent. More insights and options are available in this issue (opens new window) or this issue (opens new window). After you'll see a FreeBSD icon in your VM list on Xen Orchestra, and you can restart/shutdown the VM properly from the Web UI. If you do not plan to reboot the VM, you can start the daemon manually running the command /usr/local/sbin/xe-daemon -p /var/run/xe-daemon.pid &. Command: /usr/local/sbin/xe-daemon -p /var/run/xe-daemon.pid &.Create a new task with the following settings:. Once the package is installed, you need to tell FreeNAS to start the xe-daemon process when starting: # sed -i '' 's/enabled: yes/enabled: no/' /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/nf # sed -i '' 's/enabled: no/enabled: yes/' /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/nfĪ restart of the VM will perform a reset of these files to their original settings too. To manually install xe-guest-utilities from a package (opens new window) you can run: The install.sh script on the guest tools ISO does not yet support FreeBSD, so there is no point in mounting the guest tools ISO on a FreeBSD VM.
