libvirt only supports the schedinfo command / API against KVM when you
have the 'cpu' CGroups controller mounted. Cgroups isn't available for
RHEL-5.5 hosts though, so you'd have to wait for RHEL6 in this case.

qemu-img can copy disks, resizing as it does it. For raw disks
just dd extra sace onto the end of it (with a suitable seek= param
to avoid killing your existing data :-)
