    Attach target device to given virtual machine. Example: [source] ---- POST /ovirt-engine/api/vms/123/hostdevices ---- With request body of type <>, for example [source,xml] ---- ---- NOTE: A necessary precondition for a successful host device attachment is that the virtual machine must be pinned to *exactly* one host. The device ID is then taken relative to this host. NOTE: Attachment of a PCI device that is part of a bigger IOMMU group will result in attachment of the remaining devices from that IOMMU group as "placeholders". These devices are then identified using the `placeholder` attribute of the <> type set to `true`. In case you want attach a device that already serves as an IOMMU placeholder, simply issue an explicit Add operation for it, and its `placeholder` flag will be cleared, and the device will be accessible to the virtual machine.
