Hi,

I've several virtual PVM domains, running on Linux. I have a san attached to 
the dom0, and the tape is presented there, to not stress the network so 
much. 
I found this faq entry:
http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/xen-vps-guest-use-tape-device/
There is no date mentioned, so I'd like to ask whether this is still true?
Well, I assume yes, but just wanted to make sure. 
In case I cannot use it, is there a recommendation to somehow work around 
that limitation?

kind regards
Sebastian
