libvirt users - Jan 2013 - libvirt -- add virtio-scsi disk with scsi-generic

Hi, Paolo, All,

I read "virtio-scsi support proposal
v2"(http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.libvirt/50428).
Try to add a virtio-scsi with scsi-generic like this:

  <hostdev type='scsi'>
    <source>
      <adapter name='scsi_host0'/>
      <address type='scsi' bus='0' target='0'
unit='0'/>
    </source>
    <target>
      <address type='scsi' controller='0' bus='0'
target='0' unit='2'/>
    </target>
  </hostdev>

But It turn out to be wrong, showing:

error: Failed to define domain from rhel63ga
error: XML error: unknown host device source address type 'scsi_host'


I'd like to know how shall to add a virtio-scsi disk with scsi-generic
option.

Thanks~

Sorry for mistake, "scsi_host" should be "scsi"

It's not yet supported by libvirt.
