How to use /dev/mapper in virt-manager/libvirt
Hi,
my test host is running Debian/GNU Linux unstable and has virt-manger
0.9.5 and libvirt 1.2.1. I am using encryption and thus have devices
in /dev/mapper that are not LVs, for example called
/dev/mapper/myvirtualdisk.
I'd like to configure libvirt in a way that allows me to directly
assign such devices to a VM. This does not work when I create a
filesystem directory storage pool in virt-manager since virt-manager
obviously choked in /dev/mapper/control, which is a character special
device that is only read...
