question of DestinationSystem meaning in MigrateVirtualSystemToSystem method

Hi, I'm a little confusing of MigrateVirtualSystemToSystem method,who can tell me what does "DestinationSystem" refer to? It different from DestinationHost which can be passed by a simple ip address. As a reference, the DestinationSystem's Name have to be parsed below. Then what on earth does it mean? if (cu_get_str_path(dsys, "Name", &dname) != CMPI_RC_OK) { cu_statusf(_BROKER, &s, CMPI_RC_ERR_FAILED, "Missing key (Name) in DestinationSystem"); METHOD_RETURN(results, 1); return s; } Thanks!

DestinationSystem is a REF of a CIM_System to migrate to. Currently, the Name key of the system is used as the hostname. I still need to update the schema for the migration calls and validate that the Name key is the appropriate one to use. For now, using DestinationHost and MigrateVirtualSystemToHost is probably the best way for now. The MigrateVirtualSystemToSystem call is just another way to do it, if you have a REF of the destination system. -- Dan Smith IBM Linux Technology Center Open Hypervisor Team email: danms@us.ibm.com
