PfSense VM on ProxMox : Qemu-agent installation

thewho

i was not able to use your script because the agent gives me a error.

service qemu-guest-agent start
Cannot 'start' qemu_guest_agent. Set qemu_guest_agent_enable to YES in /etc/rc.conf or use 'onestart' instead of 'start'.

but as soon as i added it in the /etc/rc.conf i was able to start the agent. Has something changed with 2.7.1? (first time using proxmox and QEMU)

@thewho I installed on 2.7 and upgraded to 2.7.1 and mine appears to remain functional. service qemu-guest-agent start tells me qemu_guest_agent already running? and provides the pid for it. That said .. something is wrong as my memory consumed in the proxmox host has doubled after the move 2.7>2.7.1 (3.2G>7.1G)
