Interesting.
Before and after migration, run "ip link" on the hosts. See what vif device is being created for the move. When it is moved, check /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/<vif device>/proxy_arp. If it is not 0, this could also be related. How smart is the switch that these machines are on? Do you have access to a hub? I know they're a bit hard to get these days, but if things work with the hub, then it is probably a problem generating the gratuitous ARP for the migration.
Generally this is set up in /etc/xen/scripts/vif-bridge. I am unsure how this works for migration, but I suspect it is done the normal way. On Apr 1, 2008, at 7:01 PM, mo ther wrote:

It definitely isn't changing.
Does anyone know what script sets up the networking once the vm has been completely transferred?
Also, are you using bridged or routed networking?
