RE: [Xen-devel] Daily Xen-HVM Builds: cs9226

["Yu, Ping Y" <ping.y.yu@xxxxxxxxx>]

Daniel,

Currently, HVM support multiple disks in QEMU configure, and you can add
extra disks by configuring options in "disk", for example,
disk = [ 'file:/var/images/min-el3-i386.img,ioemu:hda,w', 
'file:/var/images/min-el3-i386_2.img,ioemu:hdb,w' ]
Does it meet your requirement?

Currently problem is that strict check is added in VBD and forbid one 
image for multiple HVM and all those test cases in xm-test failed, see 
information
 below:

[dom0] Running `xm create /tmp/xm-test.conf'
Using config file "/tmp/xm-test.conf".
Error: Device 768 (vbd) could not be connected.
File /opt/vmm/control_panel/xm-test/ramdisk/disk.img is loopback-mounted 
through /dev/loop0,
which is mounted in a guest domain,
and so cannot be mounted now.
Failed to create test domain because:
Using config file "/tmp/xm-test.conf".
Error: Device 768 (vbd) could not be connected.
File /opt/vmm/control_panel/xm-test/ramdisk/disk.img is loopback-mounted 
through /dev/loop0,
which is mounted in a guest domain,
and so cannot be mounted now.

REASON: Failed to create domain
