Joakim,

Everything looks fine from what I can see. Only thing that I really have no clue on, is if the phy drives need the ioemu prefix. Maybe someone else who has more experience can give you insight on if that could be the problem. I run mine off LVM and none of mine have that and they work fine. Maybe try removing that and see how it flies.

Hi, Shane

Thanks for your help

My boot option is set to c.

I include my config file for stuart.

Best regards

Joakim,
I am guessing this is a HVM? What is your boot option set to?

Thanks for your reply but it makes no difference.

It is when I try to pass on more then two devices it stops to work. I have tried both file and phy.

This may be completely invalid, but have you tried "hdd" instead?

Xen man pages, xl disk configuration, and any other example I have seen always use "hdc" for a cdrom device.

Hi

I would like to add a second physical disk to my file server.

My disk config used to look like this:
disk = [ 'file:/xen/stuart/stuart.img,ioemu:hda,w', 'phy:/dev/sdb,hdb,w' ]
It works and I can mount my disk as /dev/xvde1

But when I add a second disk like:
disk = [ 'file:/xen/stuart/stuart.img,ioemu:hda,w', 'phy:/dev/sdb,hdb,w', 'phy:/dev/sdd,hdc,w' ]
Stuart won't start. During start up it ends at:
XENBUS: Waiting for devices to initialize: 295s...

Could you please help me with this problem, I'm stuck and I can't find any solution.

Best regards
Joakim Svensson
