Install inside the guest
Mount or attach the Guest Tools media to the VM, run the installer inside the guest, and allow the package to install the guest agent and STRATUM GPU integration.
After installation, verify that the validation summary succeeds and that the stratum-guest-agent service is active.
Procedure
Install Guest Tools
Attach the Guest Tools media, mount it inside the guest, and run the supplied install script. Let the installation finish before restarting or validating the agent.
Commands
Use the Guest Tools CD-ROM assigned to this guest; the Linux device path can vary. The installer may need access to OS package repositories or a prepared offline mirror.
# Inside the guest: adapt /dev/sr1 to the attached Guest Tools media
sudo mkdir -p /mnt/stratum-guest-tools
sudo mount -o ro /dev/sr1 /mnt/stratum-guest-tools
ls -la /mnt/stratum-guest-tools
sudo /mnt/stratum-guest-tools/install.sh --install-depsGuest Tools Installation Complete
The validation summary should report the guest agent and required GPU integration components as installed successfully.
Guest Agent Service Status
Check the stratum-guest-agent service after installation. It should be loaded and active inside the guest.
Commands
The service should report active. On other guest distributions, consult the service manager used by that operating system.
# Confirm the guest agent was installed and is active
systemctl status stratum-guest-agent --no-pager
systemctl is-active stratum-guest-agentThe outcome you should see
Guest Tools validation succeeds and the guest agent is active.
