Hot-add is not supported for RHEV 2.1. As I said in bug #500975 ... This is a bug with the guest driver. Please do not confuse guest issues with host issues. Only host bugs are relevant to RHEV-H What OS is the guest running? RHEL 5.4? If so, please file a bug against RHEL5.4/kernel about this and cc me. Thanks Guest RHEL-5.3-server-64, ah... yes,seems to be guest's driver problem. This patch fixes this warning: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=29f9f12ec7 A similar warning should be seen if you do "rmmod virtio-pci". These patches are required to fix that: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=0aa0dc41bf http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=63d1255670 This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux maintenance release.
