First some introduction: - I have 'storage' vm. It takes storage devices (few HDDs) on startup and exposes them via NFS & Samba to other VMs and physical machines. Each VM can access just what is exported for it, rw or r/o. - When 'storage' is started it has to trigger assignment of block devices to itself (and un-assign them on shutdown). Achieving this is discussed here https://groups.google.com/d/topic/qubes-users/RogG5rXG_Pw/discussion - Assign/un-assign is triggered from storage via qubes-rpc actions 'storage-attach/detach' I just want to be notified on screen for each device that is assigned/de-assigned. And since assign/de-assign happens in dom0, 'notify-send' is called there. It seems clumsy that dom0 calls back 'storage' to run 'notify-send' there, but if this is the only working option in Q4 - I'll do it. Will try it on next Q4 run Tom -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
