Title
LUNperVDI Mode Manipulation via SR.sm_config
Summary
A pool-operator in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) can corrupt the VDI management mode of a storage repository by adding or removing the LUNperVDI key in SR.sm_config. This key controls whether the SR maps one LUN per VDI or uses shared LUNs with VHD containers. Mode mismatch causes VDI creation, deletion, and scanning failures. The sm_config field has zero map_keys_roles entries and remains writable after SR creation despite being intended as driver-managed metadata.
