Really appreciate the suggestion! By "live migration", do you mean keeping the existing files and migrate them elsewhere with the vm?

Thanks

I mean making any given VM stop on host A and appear on host B; e.g. standard Qemu/KVM:

    virsh migrate --live GuestName DestinationURL
This is feasible when network storage is available and useful when a host needs to be drained for maintenance.
