RE: [Xen-users] can I clone a runiung domU?
Don't forget to specify block size (bs=x) in your DD command. I've had good
luck with 2-4M block sizes; by default, I think the BS=256k. I've seen it cut
copy time by 75%

Subject: [Xen-users] can I clone a runiung domU?
Hi all
I'd like to know if it's possible to clone a running domU. I need to
make an exact copy of an existing CentOS xen domU, but without taking it
offline. I'm using LVM, so I don't know if it will help.
I have tried doing it with dd, after shutting down the domU, but it
takes ages. The LVM image is 30GB. I can't really afford to have the
running one off line that long, so if possible I'd like todo it while
it's running.
