Good suggestion. Thanks.
The easy road appears to be blocked, though. with this edited XML:
<disk type='block' device='disk'>
<driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
<source dev='/dev/drbd/by-res/sql'/>
<target dev='hda' bus='ide'/>
<address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/>
</disk>
the result is:
# virsh start sql
error: Failed to start domain sql
error: unable to open disk path /dev/drbd/by-res/sql: Wrong medium type
This is with virsh 0.9.12. Also fails when skipping the symlink: <source dev='/dev/drbd12'/>
leads to exactly the same failure. Either I'm missing another tweak, or this
setup isn't currently compatible.
