Storage XenMotion works on XCP, and can be executed from the command
line or the XenAPI.

The syntax for executing a storage motion from the command line is 'xe
vm-migrate remote-master=<network address> remote-user=<root>
remote-password=<pass> vif=<vif uuid>:<remote network uuid> vdi=<vdi
uuid>:<remote sr uuid> [destination-sr-uuid=<remote sr uuid>]'. If you
find that difficult to remember, try 'xe help vm-migrate'.

It's also possible to move a VM's disks while the VM is running, using
the new command 'xe vdi-pool-migrate'.
