Are you using managed or unmanaged domains? If you''re using Xend
managed
domains you would need to back up some of Xend''s state - but
I''m not sure
which bits of it would be important or how you''d be expected to backup
/
restore them.
For domains that aren''t managed by Xend (using a config file instead)
then
backing up the disk images and the config file should be adequate (plus a
save file if you suspend the domain).
Cheers,
Mark
