yes.. it possible.
but, not is easy !! :-(

in resume, you need:

- copy the LVM partitions of actual VM in the XENExpress for new
machine (other LVM partition or image file)
- create one new config file for this machine

if you SO is windows, then you need too:
- start VM in safe mode
- remove XenTools softwares in panel control
- restart the VM
- install the GPLPV drivers for windows (see install docs)
- and, caution with partitions DLM in windows/XenEnterprise... the
XenOpenSource, don't work..

mmm... in this moment, I just finish of migrate 6 VM (windows and
linux) of Express for OpenSource..
and this result is good.

P.S.: In one future no distant, I think write one howto.

bye
