Huh, I get microsoft

Interesting. I'm not familiar with synology's virtualization.

Looks like https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/17894

I've enabled Hyper-v Enlightenments

[lone sand]

Hmm. Why would synology use hyper-v?

[ionic thunder]

It's just qemu under the hood. I think it's this feature: https://www.qemu.org/docs/master/system/i386/hyperv.html

Originally a feature designed by Microsoft for Windows, it expanded to Linux guests (https://events19.lfasiallc.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/Use-Hyper-V-Enlightenments-to-Increase-KVM-VM-Performance_Density_Chao-Peng.pdf)

I guess I'll disable that and reboot

[lone sand]

Yeah that makes more sense. What does systemd-detect-virt say if you disable those enlightenments?

[ionic thunder]

Now it returns the expect kvm and the qemu guest agent is running. TIL 🙂

[lone sand]

Yay.

Thanks for your help!
