I thought about mentioning this possibility, but I wasn't sure on the syntax. I am also not sure whether it is Fedora specific or whether the ability to use sda instead of xvda is XenSource specific (aside from in HVMs where you need "real" devices). Alain, in this case was mapper/LaLvg0-MailDisk partitioned with fdisk, or was it just a regularly formatted (i.e. ext3) lvm partition? Also, from your provided line, it looks like /dev/ isn't necessary after the phy: in Fedora Xen where it was necessary in the XenSource version I last paravirtualized in. Is it accurate to assume that you copied that line from a working config on a Fedora Xen machine?

I missed the start of this thread, but ... I had problems attaching disks and resolved it by a line like: disk = [ 'phy:mapper/LaLvg0-MailDisk,xvda,w', 'phy:mapper/LaLvg0-MailHome,xvdb,w' ] The important thing was the change from sda or sda1 to xvda. After that things worked. -- Alain Williams Linux Consultant - Mail systems, Web sites, Networking, Programmer, IT Lecturer. +44 (0) 787 668 0256 http://www.phcomp.co.uk/ Parliament Hill Computers Ltd.
