Yes. I must mount /dev/etherd/e0.0 on two host to perform the migration,
because of the file-backed VBD of DomU resides in this exported
partition. How I said, both files writes and deletes in the file-backed
VBD of DomU works synchronized, but the problem seems to be when I want
to create a file in the exported partition together with the file-backed
VBDs of DomU. Why this difference in the synchronization? How I get
writes and deletes in synchronized mode to both file-backed VBD of DomU
and others files in the same exported partition?

Regards,
Daniel
