Re: [Xen-users] Move domU lvm based to another dom0

The most common way is with "dd". You could also add compression with
gzip (quite standard), lzma/bzip2 (high compression, but REALY slow),
or lzop (fastest). Something like

dd if=/dev/VG/your-lv bs=4M | gzip -c | ssh your.other.dom0 "gunzip -c
| dd of=/dev/VG/your-new-lv bs=4M"

another option is to use FS-specific method. tar or rsync should work
on common Linux filesystem (ext3, reiserfs, etc.) while for Windows
domU you can use ntfsclone.
