setting target release to current version for consideration and review. please do not push non-RFE bugs to an undefined target release to make sure bugs are reviewed for relevancy, fix, closure, etc. what PCI block device hotplug A host passthrough using a vdsm hook for this? Or regular "hotplug disk" via UI? is this RHEV or oVirt?

First of all you have to install the oVirt guest agent and the RHEVM guest agent anyway. When you install them you can also install the acpiphp module and configure the OS to make it load the module on startup. Having such a specific workaround for RHEL5 is in my opinion not any helpful. It is a nice thing to know that we could support disk hotplugging but if you are using an older OS and you want to use such a feature then the OS must be configured to support it anyway. From my PoV this feature is not really worth it for such a specialized task where this is actually the administrators thing to decide. |
