Re: [libvirt] attach device on a defined (non-active) vm

It seems that the attach device function really 'attaches' a

Otherwise I would not have a clue how to interpreted this message:
libvir: Xen Daemon error : POST operation failed: (xend.err 'Device
/dev/xvdp (51952, tap) is already connected.')
(when I try to start the domain)
This seems like a bug in XenD to me - when attaching a disk we simply
pass the SEXPR config straight into XenD's device_create RPC call.
If it accepts it without error, that's pretty much where libvirt's
involvement ends. So if it doesn't subsquently start there's something
wrong with XenD - either it failed to reject an invalid config when
libvirt made the device_create call, or it otherwise broke the guest
in some way.
