Question about Live Migration [message #35794]

Hi,

I read through the Wiki but there is no detailed information about live migration. (only that it works, what's the command etc. but no details how and why it works).

I am very interested in live migration and my specific question is: Does it care about the file system too?

Can I migrate a VE which is stored on Host1 "live" to Host2? Or do I have to care about file system consistency myself? (This would reduce my enthusiasm drastically Wink

). Or do I even need a SAN?

If it works: How does it actually work? How can live migration possible when the file system need to be consistent? How is it possible to achieve minimum downtime in this case?

And what if I have bind-mounted some ressources from the host? What happens with those mappings?

Regards,
divB
