Thanks to your very helpful hints and this thread, http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg13528.html
we were able to install SipX on Xen Server including the Xen Tools. SipX is running on a FreeNAS NFS server that is the data store for two Xen Server controllers that are in a pool. We were able to move a running SipX machine from one server to the other within about one minute while an active call was up. There was a short interruption of a couple of seconds in the audio but no other issues. This is quite remarkable (at least for me J) especially when you take into account that all the Xen Server SW that makes this possible is open source (including LiveMotion). Being able to move servers within a pool without downtime opens up many possibilities for disaster recovery, easy maintenance and backup of entire servers.

However, there is one nagging issue that prevents LiveMotion which requires the Xen Tools to be installed. Did anybody figured out a way to install Xen Tools on a SipX virtual machine???
