The serial for vdb for example is in /sys/class/block/vdb/serial<br>
<br>
I know I haven't helped with the addresses, don't know much about that,<br>
but try attaching your libvirt version and the log of<br>
/var/log/libvirt/qemu/<machine_name>.log.<br>
I'll see when I'll get to you. Maybe somebody will found out in the<br>
meantime. If not, feel free to create a bug for this.<br>
