You could assigned the SCSI controller PCI device to the domU and have it control all the SCSI devices attached to it... Best solution is probably to use a network tape backup solution of your choice and use that - just pretend the dom0 is the tape backup server and domU is a client.

I asked this because of the medium changer control. The mtx is not in SuSE 10.1 anymore, in SuSE 9.3 everythin was fine ;) Greetings Daniel _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
