[Pkg-xen-devel] Bug#674161: [Xen-API] Bug#674161: xcp-xapi: 'the device disappeared from xenstore' message during vbd-plug (vm-start)

[Dave Scott]

Could you try this as a workaround:

In dom0:

sudo xenstore-write /local/domain/0/vm hello

I think this might be the same problem as reported by John Weber on xen-api
