And, if you want to permenantly move the domU from host A to host B,
you need to move the domU config file from hostA to hostB as well.

Also, you could have Host A be a mirror of Host B (failover scenario)
so if Host A bites the dust, you can run the domU to your heart's
content on Host B, since B has the config file too...

YMMV, of course...


So, how does one move a domU from one physical server to another physical server if there's no shared storage in between?

Live? It won't work. Unless the guest does not base on any kind of storage (i.e., everything was started in a hugish initrd).

If offline, just copy storage, config...


Oh, ok. I've new to XEN, and never done this before :)
