now I want to migrate these five PV FC17 to new machine,

I using dd to dump the logical volume to new machine, and try to start the domainU, but it crash repeatedly.

# cat fc17.cfg
name = "fc17"
memory = 4096
vcpus = 4
bootloader = "pygrub"
localtime = 0
on_poweroff = "destroy"
on_reboot = "restart"
on_crash = "restart"
vfb = [ 'type=vnc,vncdisplay=6,vnclisten=0.0.0.0,vncpasswd=password' ]
vnc = 1
vncunused = 0
vncdisplay = 3
disk = [ "phy:/dev/vg01/vg01_fc17,xvda,w" ]
vif = [ "bridge=xenbrdum,script=vif-bridge" ]
parallel = "none"
serial = "none"



# xl create fc17.cfg
Parsing config from fc17.cfg
Daemon running with PID 4778
#



# xl vncviewer fc17
fc17 is an invalid domain identifier (rc=-6)


# xl list
Name ID Mem VCPUs State Time(s)
Domain-0 0 81244 6 r----- 1857.5
fc17 22 0 0 --p--- 0.0

# xl list
Name ID Mem VCPUs State Time(s)
Domain-0 0 81244 6 r----- 1859.7
fc17 22 4096 1 --psc- 0.4

Thanks

Cyrus
