manage my nodes which running in KVM.
But when i tried migration i got this error.

i am running kvm-66 taken from Centos-5 Testing repositary and libvirt
0.5.0( 0.5.0: Nov 25 2008 release note says that support for kvm
migration included)
See

Yes, true, you definitely need updated kvm userland packages for it to work.
However, the error above probably means that you didn't properly update libvirt.
Either you are still running the older libvirtd binary, or you forgot to
restart libvirtd. Once you have restarted libvirtd, you'll probably get a
different error message unless you have kvm-79 or later.
