Hello,
One of my collegue asked me if it is possible to update PV DomU kernel
without reboot.

Have to say that I did never think about it: I kept rebooting domU after
kernel update, like I do with traditional servers.

Now, what if I update DomU kernel on the first dom0 and try to migrate
VMs from the second one ? Will it work ? Normally I would say that it
should behave like traditionnal servers, that is that we should reboot domU.

If I'm wrong, any explanation welcome

Regards,
JB
