Re: [Xen-users] Sharing file/folder

file on one VM another can't see it and there isnt any concurrence
in this approach.
Anyone can help me??
Do it via networking. Think of each virtual machine guest as though
it was running on a separate bare metal computer and that's about
what you get with Xen in terms of inter-system communications.
It might be possible to do it by sharing a virtual disk, but you will
NEED to run a cluster file system on it with appropriate software on
each machine that accesses it. Without a cluster filesystem, then you
are absolutely guaranteed to get terminal filesystem corruption.
This would in effect be very similar to running a cluster FS on a
network volume.
For networking there are many options depending on your needs.
Clearly you could set up a share via NFS (or any other file sharing
service you like), via tools like RCP or SCP, via something like
rsync (which works very well as a service), or several other options.
