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
