The new SR will now show up in XenCenter but it is still marked as "Detached". We still have to connect the physical block device (PBD) with the SR. This is done by running the xe pbd-create
command which needs the device name (so we run ls -l /dev/disk/by-id
to find this out) and the host-uuid (we run xe host-list
to get this). In this case, The the partition on the physical block device we want to reconnect is /dev/sdb1
. The corresponding disk id is scsi-SATA_SAMSUNG_HD154UIS24EJ9BZB02485-part1
which is used in the device-config
parameter in the xe pbd-create
command.
