Hi all,

I want to implement live-migration of a highly available VM but I cannot use shared storage. The -b option to the migrate command already allows for copying the block device (locally stored raw file) and that is exactly what I want. This worked in my experiments but the VM is unreachable (CPU halted?) while the block device is copied, which is unacceptable for my use-case.

Is there a way to copy the block device while the VM is running (copy on read or such)? The LiveBlockMigration page in the qemu wiki [1] mentions that some of this is already implemented, but I cannot find any of it in the latest qemu-kvm.
Any pointers?

Thanks for your suggestions.
