[ale] Xen Server adding a virtual disk to a VM

Hi, I actually know how to add a virtual disk to a VM, but once it's added, how are you supposed to know the device name so you can partition, create a filesystem, and mount it? 


I usually do this guessing-game where I do "ls /dev/xvd*" and "mount|grep xvd" and try to find what's missing, but this doesn't seem like the best way. Can you find out somehow from the xe command?
