I am using QEMU/KVM, using Live Migrations like this:

My question, running this command makes it hang in the foreground. Is
there a way for this to return immediately, so I can just poll for the
migration status?
Not at the moment, but it might be worth adding a 'migrate --detach'
flag for that purpose, then using job control commands to track progress
independently.
Also, is there a way to _cancel_ a migration?
Hit Ctrl-C (or any other approach for sending SIGINT to virsh).
I see
the --timeout option, however if a given timeout is reached I would
rather have the ability to cancel the migration than force the suspend.
I do see there is a QEMU api migrate_cancel..eg:
virsh qemu-monitor-command ${name} --pretty '{"execute":"migrate_cancel"}'
Is that the only way to cancel a migration using libvirt?
That way is unsupported. The supported way (and the way used by ctrl-C
during 'virsh migrate') is to call virDomainAbortJob().
Thanks Erik, very helpful response.
