For several weeks I am trying to achieve a life migration with no success. Which method is preferable to store the guests root system (nfs, nbd, iscsi, ...) and where do I find howtos on how to configure nfs, nbd, iscsi, xen the vms and the kernel for life migration? _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

What are the errors you are getting? Check /var/log/xen/* on both Xen hosts for errors. -- Tomasz Chmielewski http://wpkg.org _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
