Re: [Xen-users] Migrate a domU

do it like this (change values of "if" and "remotehost" and "of"):

dd if =/dev/hdb3 | ssh remotehost dd of=/home/xen/domU.disk


or use tar + ssh:

Create and mount your domU image on the target server.

Create a file /tmp/exclude-list and specify all directories you don't 
want to copy over, e.g. /dev, /proc, /sys ...
Then do

cd /
tar –c -z --numeric-owner –X /tmp/exclude-list –f - * |
ssh remotehost “cd /mnt; tar –x –z- -p –f –“


Bye,
Andrej
