RE: [Xen-users] Adding disk image file to existing DomU VM



You can use "xm block-attach".

xm block-attach <Domain> <BackDev> <FrontDev> <Mode>

That will hot-add it to a running domU so you don't need to restart it.

You will also need to add it to your config file for the domain so it is
attached upon the next boot of the domU.

Subject: [Xen-users] Adding disk image file to existing DomU VM


How can we add a new disk image file to an existing DomU virtual machine
which is already configured and running?

We already have the VM running with 20GB partition mapped to a disk image
file.

We have created a new disk image file of 150GB size and we want this file
to
be available as another file system on the DomU host.

Please advise.
