[Xen-users] How to add the fifth hard drive to Windows domain in Xen?



Hi,

I tried both the following formats in the Windows config file, but they did not work:

1. disk = ['phy:/dev/VG_Dom3_Windows/w2k3-001,ioemu:hda,w', 'phy:/dev/sde,ioemu:hdb,w', 'phy:/dev/sdf,ioemu:hdc,w', 'phy:/dev/sdg,ioemu:hdd,w', ‘phy:/dev/sdh,ioemu:hde,w' ] Windows domain does not boot and Xen reports error "Error: hvm: for qemu vbd type=file&dev=hda~hdd"


2. disk = ['phy:/dev/VG_Dom3_Windows/w2k3-001,ioemu:hda,w', 'phy:/dev/sde,ioemu:hdb,w', 'phy:/dev/sdf,ioemu:hdc,w', 'phy:/dev/sdg,ioemu:hdd,w', ‘phy:/dev/sdh,hde,w' ]
Windows boot, but it can still recognize only four hard drives.

Windows try to emulate those IDE hard drives and this could be the reason the Windows HVM domain can not recognize more than 4 hard drives.

I really appreciate if anyone can help me walk around this issue.

Thanks a lot,

Liang
