[Xen-devel] Re: Migrating a 32 bit DomU from a 64 bit machine to a 32 bit machine?

On the destination machine's /var/log/xen/xend.log it says

Hi Folks,
I am trying to live migrate a 32 bit linux DomU from a 64-bit machine running 64-bit dom0 to a 32 bit machine running 32-bit dom0.
Apparently the live migration fails with the following error.

[root@vt3 xen]# xm migrate --live 1 143.215.138.73
Error: /usr/lib64/xen/bin/xc_save 23 1 0 0 1 failed
Usage: xm migrate <Domain> <Host>

Migrate a domain to another machine.

Options:

-h, --help           Print this help.
-l, --live           Use live migration.
-p=portnum, --port=portnum
                     Use specified port for migration.
-n=nodenum, --node=nodenum
                     Use specified NUMA node on target.
-r=MBIT, --resource=MBIT
                     Set level of resource usage for migration.

[root@vt3 xen]#

The /var/log/xend.log say the following

Could someone please let me know if it is possible to migrate VMs between 64 bit and 32 bit machines? I am using the latest xen tree.

Thanks,
Sanjay
