Does vm_w2ksrv_01 mean that this is a Windows guest -> a HVM guest? In
that case it's not "supposed to work". The code to implement HVM
save/restore was introduced into unstable a few weeks back. It works
most of the time at present, but there are a few bugs to fix still - in
particular, fixing that a domain may be in the middle of a IO
transaction when it gets stopped - the current code in xen-unstable
isn't coping with this very well... There is work in progress to fix
this... I think this is a "required" feature for 3.0.5, so 3.0.5 should
have working save/restore - Live migration may or may not be included in
that.
