Hi:
It's so greate to know that you have added this. 
I can "xm create" pv guest successfully using: 
disk=[ 'tap:remus:server2:9000|aio:/home/ninja/img/test/paraV.img,hda1,w' ]

However, when I updated my xen-unstable version from 20570: aa01a13d750b to 20844.I encountered a problem seems very strange:

[root@server1 test]# xm create vm1.cfg 
Using config file "./vm1.cfg".
Error: Device 769 (tap) could not be connected. server2:9000|aio:/home/ninja/img/test/paraV.img does not exist

What I can ensure is that this is not
If I remove "remus:server2:9000| ", I can create the pv normally using 
"disk=[ 'tap:aio:/home/ninja/img/test/paraV.img,hda1,w' ]". So it seems that I make something wrong with the "remus:server2:9000| ". Yet I did successfully create a pv using the same configuration in a previous version of xen-unstable(I'm not quite sure if there is a bug been imported into the later version since 20570).

Do I miss something? Thanks for pointed out.

This is my configuration file:
  1 kernel="/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18.8-xen"
  2 ramdisk="/boot/initrd-2.6.18.8-xen.img"
  3 memory=256
  4 name="ParaOS"
  5 vcpus=1
  6 vif=[ '' ]
  7 #vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3e:00:00:11, bridge=xenbr0' ]
  8 ip="192.168.226.217"
  9 netmask="255.255.255.0"
 10 gateway="192.168.226.1"
 11 #disk=[ 'tap:aio:/home/ninja/img/test/paraV.img,hda1,w' ]
 12 disk=[ 'tap:remus:server2:9000|aio:/home/ninja/img/test/paraV.img,hda1,w' ]
 13 root="/dev/hda1 ro"

"server2" is the name of backup server, "9000" is the intended port and "/home/ninja/img/test/paraV.img" is the location of my image.

The error was oringiated from the function of "waitForDevice" in xen/xend/server/DevController.py
the status of waiting is "Error" and the vm imediately destroy itself which seems caused by it hasn't waited the "tap 769"(device ID which listed in xend.log as below).

the error info is at line 165 of DevController.py
157         elif status == Error:
158             self.destroyDevice(devid, False)
159             if err is None:
160                 raise VmError("Device %s (%s) could not be connected. "
161                               "Backend device not found." %
162                               (devid, self.deviceClass))
163             else:
164                 raise VmError("Device %s (%s) could not be connected. "
165                               "%s" % (devid, self.deviceClass, err))

the "err"  in VmError above is produced by function "waitForBackend" in DevController.py too.
559             err = xstransact.Read(backpath, HOTPLUG_ERROR_NODE)
which I print out and get the value of backpath:
backpath:/local/domain/0/backend/tap/18/769.
I don't know why xstransact.Read failed here.

Is it a name resolvation problem of remus, or guestOS version specific problem(my pv is rhel5.3), 

or just a configuration problem or anything else? I'm stunted.hope someone can give me any advice to step further. 

Here is the xend.log:
