[pve-devel] Feature request

[Gilberto Nunes]

Consider this... (And this happen to me, recently).
I have to use a VM with Windows XP, in order to have some sort of system
running properly...
First, I install the VM using LSI or whatever...
But now, I need to add a second HDD, but using Virtio and using Virtio
Block...
There's no way to do that nowadays.... In SCSI Controller, I always one per
VM.... I doesn't meant more than one HDD, but more than one HDD
Controller....
And if we can do it, i.e., add a new Controller w/o downtime, would be
nice...

I hope that I am clear enough

Thank you
