I migrated a Debian VM from esxi to TrueNAS SCALE (just to be clear, I am NOT running TrueNAS inside a VM). Unfortunately, I know nothing about qemu.
On esxi, there are the open-vm-tools that add services to the VM such as copy/paste etc. It seems that the qemu equivalent is qemu-guest-agent.
However, trying to start the agent inside my VM, it refuses because it claims it's missing its control device. By default, /dev/virtio-ports/org/qemu.guest_agent.0
Unless I missed it, the guest agent is not configurable in 21.08. The command line to /usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 doesn't seem to include it either, but I could have missed it. Am I on the right track?
