Hello,

        For my xen domUs I'm using a mixture of locah physical partitions (with
LVM) and iSCSI disks. For local partitions, I don't have any problem,
because LVM volumes are always the same. But for iSCSI disks, devices
are assigned in the order they are connected, so I can't be sured that
device that now is /dev/sdb (for example) will always be /dev/sdb.

        So, is there any way to identify the physical device in the domU
configuration not as phy:/dev/sdb, but something like phy:label=fslabel?
Or is there any other solution to this problem?
