Hello list.
I'm trying to achieve an easy mapping between my HVM guests and their
corresponding VNC display number. Using automatic affectation, through
usage of vncunused option set to 1, relies on launch order, which isn't
practical when you have a large guests number.
The doc seems to says than setting vncunused=0 will revert to static
affectation, as defined by vncdisplay option, whose default value is
supposed to be dom ID number. But when trying this option, the first
guest uses display number 0, and all the following one refuse to start,
probably because the port is already allocated. And the resulting
message is quite misleading:
[root@sequoia xen]# xm create mdv20090-i86
Using config file "./mdv20090-i86".
Error: name 'domid' is not defined

It seems actually vndisplay default to 0, and there is no way to
manually set it to a dynamic value (vndisplay=domid doesn't work).
I'm using xen 3.4.2 on mandriva linux.

BOFH excuse #228:
That function is not currently supported, but Bill Gates assures us it
will be featured in the next upgrade.
