Migration with storage is not supported in libvirt until 0.8.2. The version
you are trying with F13 is too old. With virsh you would add the
--copy-storage-all or --copy-storage-inc flag to 'migrate'

If you're just using QEMU directly outside libvirt, then you're better
directing questions to qemu-devel mailing list
