make no mistake, the absolutely best way is from within the VM.

I have a question to you guys. Is it possible to use code from live
migration of KVM VMs to migrate other process?
As far as I can tell, no.
most of the virtualization facililites of KVM are implemented in the
kernel,
1: no. what you're asking can't be done. if it was possible, every
chipmaker would implement it in silicon to create über-fast
single-processors on top of multicore chips.

The advantage is that we don't take the brute-force and CPU intensive

CLVM (aka cLVM) is the cluster version of LVM, the volume manager.
