Hi,

I want to use live migration and as far as I know, for remote storage I
can use GNBD, AoE, iSCSI and NFS among others. Which of these ones works
best (or is easier to set up) with Xen?
I've been told you need a block device, not a mount point.

Chris.


Is there any solution that can use my existing file images for domUs or
do I have to install a domU on a partition of the remote storage server?

Thank you.
Cristian
