vbox: Add support for configuring storage controllers
|
||||||
|
</summary>
|
||||||
|
<description>
|
||||||
|
The VirtualBox driver now supports the <code><controller></code>
|
||||||
|
element in the domain XML for configuring storage controllers in VBOX
|
||||||
|
VMs. Additionally, libvirt's domain XML schema was updated to allow
|
||||||
|
optional <code>model</code> attribute for <code><controller
|
||||||
|
type='ide'></code> which is used by the VBOX driver to set the
|
||||||
|
IDE controller model to be one of 'piix4', 'piix4' (default), or
|
||||||
|
'ich6'. Finally, with this change <code>dumpxml</code> generates
|
||||||
|
<code><controller></code> elements that correspond to current
|
||||||
|
VBOX VM storage controller configuration.

vbox: Add support for attaching empty removable disks

The VirutalBox driver now supports adding CD-ROM and floppy disk
|
||||||
|
devices that do not have the disk source specified. Previously such
|
||||||
|
devices were silently ignored.

vbox: Add support for attaching SAS storage controllers
|
||||||
|
</summary>
|
||||||
|
<description>
|
||||||
|
In VirtualBox, SCSI and SAS are distinct controller types whereas
|
||||||
|
libvirt does not make such distinction. Therefore, the VBOX driver was
|
||||||
|
updated to allow attaching SAS controllers via <code><controller
|
||||||
|
type='scsi' model='lsisas1068'></code> element. If there are
|
||||||
|
both SCSI and SAS controllers present in the VBOX VM, the domain XML
|
||||||
|
can associate the disk device using the <code><address></code>
|
||||||
|
element with the <code>controller</code> attribute, and optionally,
|
||||||
|
set the port via <code>unit</code> attribute.

vbox: Do not ignore failures to attach disk devices when defining
|
||||||
|
</summary>
|
||||||
|
<description>
|
||||||
|
The <code>define</code> now fails and reports an error if any of the
|
||||||
|
<code>controller</code> or <code>disk</code> devices specified in the
|
||||||
|
domain XML fail to attach to the VirtualBox VM.

vbox: Fix dumpxml to always output disk devices
|
||||||
|
</summary>
|
||||||
|
<description>
|
||||||
|
The VirtualBox driver was ignoring any disk devices in
|
||||||
|
<code>dumpxml</code> output if there was a SAS storage controller
|
||||||
|
attached to the VM.

vbox: Fix dumpxml to always generate valid domain XML
|
||||||
|
</summary>
|

<description>
|
||||||
|
When a VirtualBox VM has multiple disks attached, each to a different
|
||||||
|
storage controller that uses 'sd' prefix for block device names e.g.
|
||||||
|
one disk attached to SATA and one to SCSI controller, it no longer
|
||||||
|
generates XML where both would have 'sda' device name assigned.
|
||||||
|
Instead it properly assigns 'sda' and 'sdb' to those disks in the
|
||||||
|
order of appearance.
