Hi howard chen, If I rsync the following folders from one guest to another guest for complete system migration, is it safe? ... p.s. I cannot use live migration or other tools since I don't have control to the host. I can only control the guest. worst option - online: It's possible, but you will not get consistent data. better option - lvm:Install LVM on both guests, create a snapshot of src-guest and copy the data to dst-guest. Pro: + consistent data (ok, maybe you should shutdown dbs..)Con: - you will loose every change between snapshot-creation and transfer-finished. best option - offline:I would shutdown both guests and start the sync (may you can boot a rescue-system?) Maybe it helps, Fabian _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
