Hi. Most of the question is in the title already. A bit of context: the list of sm plugins in xapi.conf is painful to update through RPMs because xapi.conf is a configuration file that neither Citrix Hypervisor nor XCP-ng replaces when its default contents changes.

Currently, I don't really see the benefits of not allowing any SR driver installed on the system to be loaded by XAPI, so I consider setting this value once and for all to * in future releases of XCP-ng. However there may be consequences to doing that that I haven't foreseen, so I'm asking the developers directly through this issue.

Thanks in advance for your insight.
