Hi! We have implemented a storage solution where we use iscsi to connect SLES 11 to a SAN. Now i have to move a DomU from a local Volumegroup to a VG in the SAN. I used dd to make first a copy into the VG on the storage. Now i thought it is enough to edit the DomU files in /etc/xen/vm/ to have the DomU using the LV on the storage to start. When i look into xen-log it is still using the local LV. What have i to do to get it working?

After creation, a backend configuration database is used (i''m not sure about the proper name. You have to export config (xm list -l domU>domU.sxp), edit it and reimport it (xm new -F domU.sxp) Regards, -- Ciro Iriarte http://cyruspy.wordpress.com -- _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
