At home, I'm trying to move my USB printer in a domU xen domain.

According to my reading, it's possible but I have to use a kernel command line argument like "pciback.hide=(00:11.0)" in dom0 and add something like "pci = ['00,11,00']" to my guest configuration. (Didn't succeed yet though).

Maybe, you should do the same for a tape drive?

I have find http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/Assign_hardware_to_DomU_with_PCIBack_as_module that might well help you.

That was my 5cents help,

Cyrille

amanda in domU





I was wondering if amanda could run in a xen instance. And if so does
the dom0 automatically pass the tape scsi adapter to the xen instance?
Also if I move amanda to this xen instance will it be able to open my
old tapes? Any help is appreciated.
