Hi,

 

I have a Windows guest system over a XEN machine

At this moment, every time that I need to put a cd into the cdrom unit, I need to shutdown/start the virtual machine, for the new cdrom content appears. Is that correct?  Or anybody knows a different way to do this?

 

The cdrom part, of the hvm file is:

 

disk = [ 'phy:/dev/XenVol/vmwin12Root,ioemu:hda,w',

         'phy:/dev/cdrom,hdc:cdrom,r' ,

         'phy:/dev/XenVol/vmwin12Data,ioemu:hdb,w' ]

 

 

Regards

Luis
