Re: [Xen-devel] pci hotplug in xcp

[Ritu kaur <ritu.kaur.us@xxxxxxxxx>]

1. Guest OS is Debian Lenny 5.0(with 2.6.32.9 kernel from xen.org)

2. acpiphp module is loaded in guest OS

3. in my xcp dom0 I do not see /tmp/qemu.<domid> files, what I have 

# ls -l
total 8
drwx------ 3 root root 4096 Mar 11 10:21 lvm
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root    0 Apr  8 09:25 master
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  848 Apr  8 09:27 xenguest.log

xenguest.log doesn't reveal anything.

4. attached /var/log/messages.

Thanks

Please post the qemu logs (in XCP they go to syslog, so
/var/log/messages and /tmp/qemu.$domid), they'll probably reveal
an error.
What is the guest operating system? If it is Linux make sure acpiphp is
loaded.
