I also have the same problem.

The problem appears to be the addition off;

/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/xen/xend/server/blkif.py
          try:
              (typ, params) = string.split(uname, ':', 1)
              if typ not in ('phy', 'file', 'tap'):
                  raise VmError(
                      'Block device must have "phy", "file" or "tap" '
                      'specified to type')

I can get around it by adding drbd to it but means I have to edit each dom0 and restart xend.

Hi

I have two box  xen 3.2.1 and 3.3.

On the 3.3 box I can't use  drbd as a device in the domu cfg.

xm create -c test.cfg
Using config file "/etc/xen/test.cfg".
Error: Block device must have "phy", "file" or "tap" specified to type

cat /etc/xen/test.cfg

Something is was changed ?
