But from a high level, there are (at least) two distinct management operations in my mind: relocation and checkpointing. Relocation implies that a guest leaves the source machine and appears on the destination. Checkpointing implies that the domain doesn't move. If we take these two actions, can we not still provide for all the cases? For example: /* Migrate explicitly undefines the host */ virDomainMigrate(dom, "host"); /* Xen case */ virDomainMigrate(dom, "tcp://host"); /* qemu case */ virDomainMigrate(dom, "lvm://foo"); /* qemu error case */ /* Checkpoint does not undefine the host */ virDomainCheckpoint(dom, "foo"); /* Xen unimplemented case */ virDomainCheckpoint(dom, "lvm://foo"); /* qemu case */ Is that not sane? -- Dan Smith IBM Linux Technology Center Open Hypervisor Team email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
