I was thinking about this more and have not come up with a solid solution. Yes the new box does have Xen 3.0 and the older xen was running FC4 and I will assume Xen 2.0.
What is the best way to migrate the FC4 xen server over to the new server running FC6?
I want to get the image on the new server and then do an upgrade to it so it is running FC6.
Thanks!

I moved the vmlinuz-2.6.12-1.1398_FC4xenU to /boot on the new server and then ran:
xm create -c /xen/sec-int-dns/xmconfig and got this error:
Error: (22, 'Invalid argument')
I'm guesing you're trying a i386 kernel here ? FC4 is using the obsolete non-PAE kernels, while FC6 and later are all PAE. You can't mix & match a PAE and non-PAE kernels in host & guest.

Is it possible to update xen to 3.0 on the VM and then transfer to the new server?
I want to transfer to the new server first so if I make any mistakes nothing is lost - its a backup DHCP server so it needs to stay in production until it's is rolled over to the new machine.
upgrade with yum
go to direct to fedora 7

When Fedora 7 updates to support 64bit hypervisor, will upgrading to 64bit hypervisor affect current guests in any way?
