Hi, I just make the proto patch that calls migration API from virt-manager. Form unity point of view, This proto patch adds Migrate in as same layer as operations for the Domain. Fisrt, this patch adds "Migrate" to the right-click menu when selected a domain.
You probably want to send this to et-mgmt-list, which is where virt-manager development happens, but I will comment on one thing below...
(2)I think it that is necessary to improve usability that there is "precheking" beofre migrating. (ex. same cpu family/processor number?, enough free memory?, ...)
I sent an e-mail last month with proposals for doing this within libvirt. I put up all of the information I have in the libvirt wiki here: http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/TodoPreMigrationChecks (if you have more ideas, please add them). In short, yes, we really want to do some pre-migration sanity checking, and I think that libvirt is probably the right place to do them. Someone needs to think about it further, though, and then sit down and implement it. Chris Lalancette
