Hi!

Say I export an LVM logical volume from dom0 as /dev/xvda to the domU:

disk = [ 'phy:xenimages/stan,xvda,w' ]

No I can lvresize xenimages/stan in dom0, but the domU stays ignorant
of this change.  How could I propagate the resize to the domU without
rebooting or temporarily breaking its connection to /dev/xvda?  Sort
of a SCSI rescan, perhaps?

Thanks,
Feri.
