Hi, all

OK. I also think both are necessary.
How about the following specification?
1. xm crash
   This is only for crashing a domain.
   If enable-dump is yes, we can get the domain's core after crash.
   And If we want to atomatically reboot, we should set on_crash='restart'
   in domain configuration.
   
2. xm dump
   This is for live dumping a domain.
   This implementation is:
     1. pause the domain
     2. dumping the domain
     3. unpause the domain
     4. reboot (if --noreboot option, don't reboot)
     
     I think we want to reboot when we want to dump.
     So I want to be default reboot.
     
   BTW, I think the feature to online-dump domain and 
   hypervisor is also necessary.(meaning online is "don't pause")
   
Best Regards,
Akio Takebe
