Hypervisor and both VMS are openSUSE 13.2, two VM definitions (template and 
gary respectively) have the following: 

        <filesystem type='mount' accessmode='squash'> 
           <source dir='/xxx/yyy/zzz/template'/> 
           <target dir='Sec'/> 
           <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x08' 
function='0x0'/> 
        </filesystem> 
-- 
        <filesystem type='mount' accessmode='squash'> 
           <source dir='/xxx/yyy/zzz/gary'/> 
           <target dir='ABC'/> 
           <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x07' 
function='0x0'/> 
        </filesystem> 

Although /xxx/yyy/zzz isn't the real path, the two subdirectories do exist 
under a common parent. Permissions are: 

        (from root) 
        drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Aug 11 13:25 xxx 
        (from xxx) 
        drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 1024 Jan 7 18:15 yyy 
        (from yyy) 
        drwxr-xr-x 8 qemu qemu 1024 Jan 11 11:48 zzz 
        (from zzz) 
        drwxrwxr-x 2 qemu libvirt 1024 Jan 14 12:23 gary 
        drwxrwxr-x 2 qemu libvirt 1024 Jan 13 08:19 template 

On template things work 

        template:/mnt # mount -t 9p -o trans=virtio,version=9p2000.L Sec 
/mnt/Demo 
        template:/mnt # ll Demo 
        total 3 
        -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 26 Jan 11 11:08 2nd-Example 
        -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 93 Jan 11 10:45 Example 
        -rw-r--r-- 1 478 474 8 Jan 13 08:19 test 

On gary I have to load the 9p modules for some reason but, after I do, I get: 

        gary:/mnt # lsmod | grep 9p 
        9pnet_virtio 17529 0 
        9p 57012 0 
        9pnet 80300 2 9p,9pnet_virtio 
        virtio_ring 21225 4 virtio_pci,virtio_rng,virtio_balloon,9pnet_virtio 
        virtio 14474 4 virtio_pci,virtio_rng,virtio_balloon,9pnet_virtio 

However, 

        gary:/mnt # mount -t 9p -o trans=virtio,version=9p2000.L ABC tmp 
        mount: special device ABC does not exist 

I've used ABC on another hypervisor, that name isn't a problem.  Any ideas or 
anything else I should check? 

Other questions: 

        Is there a way to list the 9p "target dir" names on either the 
hypervisor or, more importantly, the VM? 
        Can duplicate "target dir" entries be used on the same hypervisor if 
they are for different VMs (i.e, a target dir of ABC on different VMs)? Is so, 
can they have different paths?
