Hi there,

I would need a system running in a VM with high availability. My current 
version of KVM in Debian Lenny does not support to take snapshots of the 
VM while it is running. So I was wondering if I can migrate the VM and 
then make the snapshot on the source host. Once the snapshot is done, I 
would migrate the machine back to the source host. Is that possible? Can 
I run a savevm command on a already migrated VM?

The main idea is to make snapshots in a daily basis, and in case the 
host machine fails (i.e. hardware failure), starts the last snapshot in 
a new host.

Best regards,

   Pablo
