[xen-discuss] snv_91 dom0 and problems with the file:/ based storage in domUs

[Andrzej Szeszo]

Yeah, it should work. It was working fine on snv_86 dom0.

This works:
# lofiadm 
Block Device             File                           Options
/dev/lofi/1              /export/disk.img               -
# cat /export/home/aszeszo/os
name = "opensolaris"
vcpus = 1
memory = "512"
#disk = ['file:/export/disk.img,0,w']
disk = ['phy:/dev/lofi/1,0,w']
vif = ['']

It doesn't work with the below:
# lofiadm 
Block Device             File                           Options
# cat /export/home/aszeszo/os
name = "opensolaris"
vcpus = 1
memory = "512"
disk = ['file:/export/disk.img,0,w']
#disk = ['phy:/dev/lofi/1,0,w']
vif = ['']

I am seeing this message in the logs:
May  7 10:56:24 v-aszeszo xdb: [ID 269379 kern.warning] WARNING: xdb at 6,0: Failed to create lofi dev for /export/disk.img

I am seeing the same behaviour with other disk/iso images as well.

Regards,

Andrzej
