Hi

For virtual machines the Dom0 already does the IO scheduling.  The DomUs
should use the simplest scheduling, namely noop.  Anything else requires
advanced knowledge of IO schedulers and good coordination between the
schedulers in the Dom0, the DomUs and possibly the underlying RAID
configuration.

Setting the default for new DomUs is easy to fix.  Just append the line

  extra = 'elevator=noop'

to the file /etc/xen-tools/xm.tmpl

Changing the config files of existing DomUs should be at the discretion
of the admin :-)
