(FC) can't 
		export disk to DomU
		
		Hello all,
		
		I have a problem with Xen and FibreChannel.
		
		The Dom0 can't export a Disk on a FibreChannel 
SAN-Box to the DomU's.
		
		In the DomU configuration I try:
		
		disk = [ 'phy:/dev/sdb1,/dev/sda1,w' ]
		or
		disk = [ 'file:/mnt/sambashare.img,sda1,w' ]
		    

	
	Try 
	disk = [ 'phy:/dev/sdb1,/dev/hda1,w' ]
	disk = [ 'file:/mnt/sambashare.img,hda1,w' ]
	
	Respectively, and see if that works - if you haven't 
got a SCSI type
	driver in DomU, your DomU system probably wont have 
"sdax" devices
	(where a is an alpha-character, x a number).

Hi Mats,

thanks for your help, and I try it like your description, but 
nothing. There is no device sdax or hdax.

My DomU based on Dom0, there are the same drivers, modules 
and kernels.

LSI Modules call mpt.... (e.g. mptfc)
    

And I presume you have an initrd to load the relevant drivers?

Hi again,

yes of course, I use the same initrd in my Dom0 and DomU
