I'm working on a similar project and my hope is clonezilla will do the job. I'll report back with my results.

We're going to be converting 13 servers this weekend to XenServer 6.2. Most of them are Windows and we'll be using XenConvert. However, we do have 8 Linux based servers (3 CentOS6 and 5 Ubuntu 8.04+) that will need to be converted. I'm wondering what you guys have successfully used in the past to get Linux based servers converted to XenServer?

I've been reading quite a bit on the subject and it seems a method involves using DD, but that takes quite a bit of time. Anyone have an alternative or do I just deal with the time consumption and move on?
