Hi, my test host is running Debian/GNU Linux unstable and has virt-manger 0.9.5 and libvirt 1.2.1. I am using encryption and thus have devices in /dev/mapper that are not LVs, for example called /dev/mapper/myvirtualdisk. I'd like to configure libvirt in a way that allows me to directly assign such devices to a VM. This does not work when I create a filesystem directory storage pool in virt-manager since virt-manager obviously choked in /dev/mapper/control, which is a character special device that is only readable by root. I currently help myself by linking the devices in question manually to /dev/luksdev and having a filesystem directory storage pool point to that directory. this works, but is ugly. Is there a nicer way to get the contents of /dev/mapper available as volumes in virt-manager?
