Stefan Berger wrote: This patch enables external devices, such as for example a mounted hard drive image or a TPM, to be migrated to a remote machine. The patch hooks into the checkpointing (XendCheckpoint.py) code and performs migration in 4 different steps: ... Please let me know what you think about this idea. I really like the idea because it seems to work for any external device that can be migrated but does not allow concurrent access from both migration source and destination. I have not looked at the patch in detail, but I saw the specific inclusion of +# The tool used for initiating virtual TPM migration +#(vtpm-migration-tool '')Could this migration tool specification be more generalized so that any device migration can be configured, not just vtpm devices?
