[Fedora-xen] RE: Upgrading Xen machines

[Formoso, Travis]

I was thinking about this more and have not come up with a solid solution. Yes the new box does have Xen 3.0 and the older xen was running FC4 and I will assume Xen 2.0. 

What is the best way to migrate the FC4 xen server over to the new server running FC6? 

I want to get the image on the new server and then do an upgrade to it so it is running FC6.

Thanks!
