Hi, I haven't found a special list for Xen or virtualization (do we need one?). This is on openSUSE 10.3: I'm trying to setup Xen guests on LVM logical volumes. What I want to achieve is: - better performance as with file based VBDs - easy resizing options for guest filesystems So my plan was to use LVs directly as partitions in the guest /dev/vg/lv1 -> /dev/hda1 /dev/vg/lv2 -> /dev/hda2 (or /dev/hdb1 FWIW) According to documentation I found, that should be possible but I wasn't able to get it to work. Probably the only issue is YaST anyway but I'm not sure and I actually want to be able to install within a DomU. Xen is always using the VBDs as whole disks so that /dev/hda1 ends up being a disk which needs a partition table and partition within DomU. While using one LV for the whole DomU disk would be possible it makes resizing much harder since DomU doesn't know about LVM so I can resize the "disk" but it's not really possible to resize the partitions within DomU. Any ideas? Wolfgang -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
