[Xen-users] How to add the fifth hard drive to Windows domain in Xen?

["Liang Yang" <multisyncfe991@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I tried both the following formats in the Windows config file, but they did 
not work:
1. disk = ['phy:/dev/VG_Dom3_Windows/w2k3-001,ioemu:hda,w', 
'phy:/dev/sde,ioemu:hdb,w', 'phy:/dev/sdf,ioemu:hdc,w', 
'phy:/dev/sdg,ioemu:hdd,w', ‘phy:/dev/sdh,ioemu:hde,w' ]
Windows domain does not boot and Xen reports error "Error: hvm: for qemu vbd 
type=file&dev=hda~hdd"
2. disk = ['phy:/dev/VG_Dom3_Windows/w2k3-001,ioemu:hda,w', 
'phy:/dev/sde,ioemu:hdb,w', 'phy:/dev/sdf,ioemu:hdc,w', 
'phy:/dev/sdg,ioemu:hdd,w', ‘phy:/dev/sdh,hde,w' ]
Windows boot, but it can still recognize only four hard drives.

Windows try to emulate those IDE hard drives and this could be the reason 
the Windows HVM domain can not recognize more than 4 hard drives.
I really appreciate if anyone can help me walk around this issue.

Thanks a lot,

Liang
