Hi,
I have problems setting up san volumes in a xen guest.
We are running the xen on opensolaris SunOS node2 5.11 snv_127 i86pc
i386 i86xpv.
The Xen guest itself is Solaris 10: SunOS pgbackup 5.10
Generic_141445-09 i86pc i386 i86pc
In the past we were running an older solaris version with solaris zones
on: SunOS node138 5.10 Generic_139556-08 i86pc i386 i86pc
here new san volumes we automaticly detected and I simply used zpool to
create the zpools.
Now with opensolaris+xen and solaris sol10u8x86 in the xen guest I am
experiencing the following behaviors/problems:
1. i am not able to create zpools on a fresh create volume. i have to
run devfsadm first. this is not too bad and deterministic.
2. i am not able to create a zpool in the xen guest. before i treid this
i run 'devfsadm -c disk'
3. when i create a zpool on another machine with an older solaris 10
release, i am sometimes able to import that pool. but this is not always
the case.

Can you try using p0 to give the entire disk to the guest?
e.g. c0t*d0p0
virsh attach-disk pgbackup /dev/dsk/c0t600A0B800029D69A000014BF4B2042C3d0p0 hdb
Thanks,
