Package: xen-utils-common Version: 3.2.0-2 Severity: normal When file: sources are used for Xen block devices the Xen system will use a loopback device for each one. It's quite common for DomUs to be configured with two block devices (one for storage and one for swap) and not uncommon to have a block device for each filesystem (which makes it easier to grow filesystems).
Therefore the default of 8 loopback devices will allow an absolute maximum of 8 DomUs with file: block devices, 4 DomUs that have separate block devices for swap and storage, and 2 or less if each DomU has more devices. It seems reasonable to create a file /etc/modprobe.d/xen that contains the following line to alleviate this: options loop max_loop=32 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
