Ok, so then what would make a host not mapping the appropriate drive name? Is there a script dropped on XenServer or something?

It works fine on some host, and doesn't on some other on the same cluster :S

CloudStack picks a disk sequence number from the DB and passes it to the XenServer agent. It appears the /dev path you see is perhaps selected inside of XAPI.

This is the relevant CloudStack code in XenServerStorageProcessor (diskNumber is the disk sequence number):

            vbdr.VM = vm;

            vbdr.VDI = vdi;

            vbdr.bootable = false;

            vbdr.userdevice = diskNumber;

            vbdr.mode = Types.VbdMode.RW;

            vbdr.type = Types.VbdType.DISK;

            vbdr.unpluggable = true;


            VBD vbd = VBD.create(conn, vbdr);


// Attach the VBD to the VM

            vbd.plug(conn);

    Hi,

    Quick question. On Volume attach code for XenServer, does
    CloudStack push the /dev/sd* or /dev/xvd* for XenServer to use?

    Is there any potential reasons why on some host, ACS would push
    /dev/hde instead of /dev/xvde for the 5th drive?

    We use 4.4
