Hello,
  I have xen-3.1.0-13.fc8 on Fedora Core 8.
This version supports checkpointing for "xm save" command.

When running :

xm save --help

I get:
Usage: xm save [-c] <Domain> <CheckpointFile>

Save a domain state to restore later.
  -c, --checkpoint   Leave domain running after creating snapshot

(Though in "man xm" , --checkpoint does not show).

My question is : when using --checkpoint , should I use some shared
storage (like iSCSI)?
Or is it not a must ? can I use LVM ? are there any restrictions on
which storage is to be used for Xen migration with checkpointing?
Regards,
Ian
