The abandoned FreeNAS Corral release did have guest additions that served as a simple health monitor for FreeBSD and Linux guests. They used virtio_console(4) and the last state of the project can be found here: https://github.com/freenas/freenas-vm-tools They compile cleanly on FreeBSD 12 and I even made a port that I submitted to iX Systems, but we all know what happened to Corral, unfortunately. Possibly they can serve as a starting point for a new project. And then there seems to be a newer version, again from FreeNAS, written in Go: https://github.com/freenas/bhyve-vm-goagent HTH, Patrick -- punkt.de GmbH Internet - Dienstleistungen - Beratung Kaiserallee 13a Tel.: 0721 9109-0 Fax: -100 76133 Karlsruhe i...@punkt.de http://punkt.de AG Mannheim 108285 Gf: Juergen Egeling
