Re: [Xen-devel] A migration framework for external devices
Stefan Berger wrote:
To be a bit clearer on the idea of the framework: It would consist of
a
deamon running on the target machine whose different plug-ins know how
to
handle the migration of different pieces of state information and know
how
to de-serialize them (which mere 'scp' would not do).
So an underlying assumption would be that the local and remove real or
virtual devices support serialize/deserialize of state, correct?
Yes, that's correct.
Would also be very cool if the framework had pre-migration hooks. For
example, allow someone to write a plugin to verify that the target host
is qualified and in a good state to accept a migration before it
actually starts.
Also, some physical devices may need to be configured/re-configured on
the target prior to a migration (infiniband, fiber channel, iscsi) and
it would be good to have plugins for that as well.
