[opensuse-virtual] Basic Xen questions
Is it possible to mirror your VMs to another physical server to ensure high availability? Just in case you have to reboot the primary physical server ..

If your physical server is being rebooted, then the VM's are down.... regardless of where the disk images are located.

I've missed the beginning of this thread, but seeing you are orientating just to add; If you have some form of shared storage, fiber, iSCSI or NFS you can live migrate the guests from one machine to another keeping them running while doing maintenance to your primary host. To state the obvious the shared storage should not be located on your Xen hosts ;) On Tue, 2008-06-10 at 00:49 -0400, Evens Garde wrote:
