Re: [Xen-users] how to create XEN config file of running domU?

["Nick Couchman" <Nick.Couchman@xxxxxxxxx>]

You can use "xm list -l" to dump the configuration in SXP format; then you 
should be able to use "xm new" or "xm create" with the "-F" option to load an 
SXP-based config file.  See the "xm" man page for more info - that's where I 
dug up this.
