It's because it wants control and it needs to know what underlying block device you want to hand to it, not one that you've virtualized on top.
So what would happen if there were indeed more LVs on that block device?
ah, I see the question... you are wondering if you resize will XS complain because it is expecting to control the entire thing? that's a good point.
That would suggest that partitioning manually would be better, which sucks as an answer.

Just a general question for Linux knowledge.
But yes, that is my question exactly for XS usage.
It seems like it wants the entire block device, wouldn't you agree?

Seems that way, but worth some testing.

I'm going to test the "add folder to SR" theory soon.
Then I can move on to SRs and partitions.
