Hi all,
I am having following deployment scenario,
- 2 Xen hosts (running Xen 3.1)
- 1 Image server (NFS)

Requirements:
-----------------
1. Have an file system image of a linux distribution say Fedora 8 on
Image (NFS) Server
2. I want to have 4 guests running Fedora 8 but for 4 different users.
3. Base file system image (Fedora 8 image on Image server) shared
amongst 4 users in Read only fashion
4. All 4 users will have separate VBD's for user specific data.

Question:
------------
Is there any way to force users write on the data VBD's exported for
each VM?
The whole point is that guest user should not worry about where to
write, every write call should be targeted towards data VBD and this
needs to be achieved without changing anything in the guest.

Thanks and Regards
Chetan
