RE: [Xen-API] RE: VM. get allowed VBD devices
Yup, VM.get_allowed_VIF_devices() is the same.
Cheers,

Thanks Dave. And I am assuming same goes for
VM.get_allowed_VIF_devices()

Subject: [Xen-API] RE: VM. get allowed VBD devices
Hi,
> What exactly is VM. get allowed VBD devices()? What list does it
return?
The return value is a list of possible "VBD.userdevice" values: integers
from 0 up to some supported maximum (where the maximum depends on guest
type), with entries corresponding to existing VBDs removed.
The purpose is to give clients a hint about what "VBD.userdevice" values
are possible for a given VM configuration.
The supported maximums are hardcoded in ocaml/xapi/xapi_vm_helpers.ml:
let allowed_VBD_devices_HVM = range_inclusive 0 3
let allowed_VBD_devices_HVM_PP = range_inclusive 0 15
let allowed_VBD_devices_PV = range_inclusive 0 15
let allowed_VIF_devices_HVM = range_inclusive 0 3
let allowed_VIF_devices_HVM_PP = range_inclusive 0 6
let allowed_VIF_devices_PV = range_inclusive 0 6
where "PV" means fully paravirt linux guests; "HVM" means HVM guests
with no PV drivers; "HVM_PP" means HVM guests with PV drivers.
Note that none of these limits are actually enforced; this is just a
hinting mechanism.
Cheers,
Dave
