Hi,
	I have a question regarding this :

>  * "live migration". The 1.2 release supports suspend/resume migration
> of domains, but we have are developing a 'live' migration feature that
> will enable virtual machines to be moved beetween Xen hosts on a LAN
> without having to stop the VM. [2 months]

	Does this live migration include migration of open files,
sockets, pipes etc ? Or is this limited to the process migration.
What I mean is :
	If I have a VM running a web server, and I try to migrate,
will I lose the connection, or will it continue seamlessly?

	Some other questions that arise if the above is true are:
1) If it does, will the client application/server application change
    in any way ?
2) How do the TCP bytestreams get synchronized after migration?
3) How big a state do you envision you would need to transfer ?

Thanks,

Regards
Aniruddha
