Have a look at http://docs.univention.de/uvmm-4.0.html#uvmmext:kvm:migrate, which should work similarly for your scenario.

In the general case of I need to modify the XML you can use migration hooks to modify it, but in the case described in this question you don't need to modify the XML. Instead, just create an unmanaged libvirt network on each host, with the same network name, but each pointing to a different bridge. Then the XML can remain the same. This same question was also asked simultaneously on libvirt-users, but in a separate message so the replies for that didn't come to this list. It looks like the poster used some sort of web interface at gmane.org which isn't smart enough to use the same message ID when crossposting. Here is a pointer to my response in libvirt-users: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvirt-users/2015-June/msg00015.html -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list

The migration APIs have an argument @xmlin where you can specify new XML definition for the domain on the destination. It serves exactly this purpose where the environment there is slightly different to the source.
