Add or attach new virtual usb block device for Linux XEN guest VPS
Learn How to add or attach additional storage (like USB drive or block device )to your running para-virtualized Xen Linux guests os?
You can always create a new virtual block device by passing block-attach command to xm xen management user interface vps tool. This will trigger a hotplug event for the guest. Examples Following will mount the dsl iso as /dev/hdc in the guestdomain as a read only device. This will probably not be detected as a cdrom by the guest, but mounting /dev/hdc manually will work Code:
xm block-attach guestdomain file://path/to/dsl-2.0RC2.iso /dev/hdc ro Code:
xm block-attach guestdomain /var/lib/xen/images/disk2.img /dev/xvdb w
