Hi,

If i want to assign a particular resource (a physical device) only to a particular domain other than domain 0, is it possible? If so, can you please tell me how can i do that?

For example if i want to assign /dev/sda only to domain 1 and even domain 0 should not know about the device, in other words, the backend driver for that device should be in domain 1 and not in domain 0, is this scenario a valid one?.

Thanks,

Pree.
