Thanks. It seems this is post 3.4 release.. any plans on getting these for older version ? (may be a question for xen-devel forum.) What about KVM ? Is there a plan to get this in to qemu / kvm ? Also, make it available to older versions of qemu/kvm. Just trying to see how this important feature can be used by people currently (which are using xen and kvm from their distros.) -nb --- On Fri, 1/1/10, Pasi Kärkkäinen <pasik@xxxxxx> wrote: > From: Pasi Kärkkäinen <pasik@xxxxxx> > Subject: Re: migration and snapshots. > To: "J Nb" <j_nwb@xxxxxxxxx> > Cc: "kvm" <kvm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Date: Friday, January 1, 2010, 9:12 AM > On Wed, Dec 30, 2009 at 10:55:34AM > -0800, J Nb wrote: > > What would be a good storage topology for allowing for > migration as well as support snapshots (for backup) > > > > Would love to hear recommendations as well as details > on setup that people are using.
