Xen users - Feb 2012 - How to configure so as to use the blktap/blktap2 module in XEN

Hi,mail list members,
 
As needed by my test, blktap/blktap2 modules have to work after new VMs
start.Maybe the line about disk in the vm creation configure file is the right
position where I should be supposed to specify the function of blktap/blktap2
modules.But specifically I don''t know how to configure the disk
line.Who can help me?

Hi,

Like this:

disk = [ ''tap2:aio:<your device>,xvda,w'' ]

Note, your dom0 kernel must be compiled with blktap modules.

HTH,

Peter

Thank you.

Does I confirm that blktap modules should be compiled in kernel during the
configuration of linux kernel 3.0?
