Product Management has reviewed and declined this request. You may appeal this decision by reopening this request. Sigh. The stupid bot strikes again. Re-opening. Chris Lalancette why is the bug set to priority "low"? Changed priority to 'high'; Failure to save/restore also means failure to migrate. Migration is supported and key feature of xen-based guests. This fix is in rhel5.2, and brings rhel4-xenU to equiv., supported, functionality. This test case is a good load mixture (disk IO) and is not a contrived scenario. We've found that the migration feature works alright with 64 bit RHEL4. It is clearly working with 32bit RHEL4 but not migrating, for the current circumtances, our problem is solved with installing 64bit RHEL4 VM. Yeah, this bug strictly effects 32-bit guests, so moving to 64-bit would alleviate this. Chris Lalancette Created attachment 297808 [details]
