Instead of running firstboot script during early boot schedule a task
46b2f6
delayed for 2 minutes.
46b2f6
46b2f6
During the first boot, after virt-v2v conversion, Windows installs the
46b2f6
drivers injected by virt-v2v. When this installation is finished
46b2f6
Windows enforces some kind of internal reboot. This unfortunately
46b2f6
terminates any running firstboot scripts thus killing the installation
46b2f6
of qemu-ga MSI.
46b2f6
46b2f6
This is just a best-effort mitigation. It can still happen (e.g. with
46b2f6
slow disk drives) that the drivers are not yet installed when the
46b2f6
delayed installation starts. On the other hand we cannot delay it too
46b2f6
much otherwise we risk that the users logs in and will be doing some
46b2f6
work when the MSI installation starts. After MSI installation finishes
46b2f6
the VM needs to be rebooted which would be annoying if that would happen
46b2f6
under users hands. Although this is not a best fix (that may come later
46b2f6
as it is more complex, e.g. introducing waiting mechanism), the delay as
46b2f6
it is defined works in most cases. And it dramaticaly improves the
46b2f6
situations -- originaly I experienced more than 90% failure rate.
