Can opensolaris domU act as block/network device backend?
From "xm create --help_config" I see that the option blkif and netif is there.

The xdb (simple disk) backend certainly used to work in a domU - it was used that way during its' development. I don't know much about the xpvtap backend.

The network backend (xnb) has never, to my knowledge, been used in a domU. The VNIC approach would probably not work well there (VNICs created in a domU don't generally get any traffic due to the switching that occurs in dom0).
