Maybe using an dns mx record isn't the best idea to get high
availability, because dns records usually need some time to
communicate through the internet until every host has th new adress.
You'd better explore other HA solutions I guess.

Its not easy to understand what you mean with this question - what do
you mean by "the other end"? Do you mean the system that is referred
to as domU in the xen context?

There should be enough pointers on setting up domU's in the wiki -
wiki.xensource.com. And then, there's google which should help you
find even more...
