domain.migrate(dst, 1, null, dstIP, 0);

where dst is a Connect object created with qemu://nodeX/system - I'm also 
passing a destination IP, could that be the problem? I used this code with 
Xen before. I have two ethXs, one for iSCSI, libvirt, .. and one for br0. 
dstIP is the same IP dst points to, but if it's possible, I'd like to let it 
be configurable that way.

Ah, javadoc says I'm using an URI ;) I'll try your suggestions ASAP.

Thanks!
