Using a device path in /dev/disk/by-id/ would make more sense than specifying /dev/sdX if you're concerned about hitting the wrong disk.
At this point, I'm happy making default.cfg show an example using /dev/disk/by-id/xxx + size. Look for v2 of the patch coming up soon. -- Eric Blake eblake@redhat.com +1-801-349-2682 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
