Hi,
I'm going to make a live migration of some Xen guests from a machine
to another. At the moment I'm preparing both systems, syncing software
versions, while I read some documentation about the live migration
process.
The process looks simple, but I'm still have only one question. Let me
explain:
I have a guest on my Xen host 1 that have 3 virtual partitions that
are mapped to 3 logical volumes of the host, as follows:
Guest virtual partition Guest mount point Host physical
partition
/dev/sda1 /
/dev/xenvg/apache-root
/dev/sda2 swap
/dev/xenvg/apache-swap
/dev/sda3 /var
/dev/xenvg/apache-var
On the Xen host 2, I created the same physical partitions existing on
Xen host 1, with same name and locations.
Urm, and how exactly are you expecting the data within those partitions
to replicate itself across machines... ?!?! You need to have either a
shared block device (SAN, iSCSI, GNBD) with a cluster filesystem (GFS2,
OCFS), or use a plain file as your disk backend locating it on NFS.
Is that right or is something missing?
All your data is missing :-)
Dan.
