| Thread-topic: | Windows HVM guest disk is not write-protected with 'r' option |
Hello,
Using a Windows 2003 guest with second disk device in the xm config file:
disk=[
'phy:/dev/md4,ioemu:hda,w',
'phy:/dev/md5,ioemu:hdb,r'
]
the second disk is not actually write protected under Windows. You can, for
example, mount the NTFS volume and create/delete files.
It seems mdadm/nbd should not allow this.
I am using Xen 3.2.1 and would appreciate any comment on this issue.
Thank you,
Stephen Quintero
