Thanks -- as I suspected, your USB device has RMRRs, which are what's causing the problem. In this case, your USB controller's RMRRs are shared with another device. Theoretically, having two devices with the same RMRRs assigned to different domains could be a security issue, so Xen by default refuses to do it. The options are: 1. Figure out what the other device is and assign them both to the guest 2. Tell Xen that you don't mind the sharing. You should only do #2 if you're not using Xen for isolation -- i.e., if you trust the software in that VM not to attack dom0. I *think* you should be able to do #2 by adding 'rdm_policy=relaxed' to your pci stanza; i.e., it should look like this: pci=['00:1a.0,rdm_policy=relaxed'] Let me know if that works for you. -George _______________________________________________ CentOS-virt mailing list CentOS-virt@xxxxxxxxxx https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-virt
