Adding hard drive windows (KVM)

[naturlight]

Hello

I installed a Windows (XP and 2003) guest using one partition as hard
drive. (with promox KVM)

And this works fine. Really fine.

After installation, people asked me to add another hard drive to this
installation, and then, I added another "disk".
But actually i don't see it on windows , how and what can i do ?

Regards,
Thx for answer

you need to power off an power on the winxp. a reboot does not activate hardware changes.

I did it , but i don't see the disk
Any idea ? vm is on windows seven pro

post the output of your VM config:

cat /etc/qemu-server/VMID.conf

and what type of disk did you add? (ide, virtio?)

I add an ide

name: test.com
ide2: local:iso/windows7-pro_x86.iso,media=cdrom
vlan0: rtl8139=02:00:00:E2:6F:40
bootdisk: ide0
ostype: other
ide0: local:105/vm-105-disk-1.raw
memory: 4096
onboot: 1
sockets: 1
ide1: local:105/vm-105-disk-2.raw
cores: 4

I see no error, should work. Did you really checked the 'disk management' on winxp?

problem solved
=> i go to the service to manage the disk on windows and them i could format it
