Hello!
I have to migrate my Xen Setup from an old machine to a new one.
The old has one 80GB SATA Disk, the new has one 250 GB SATA Disk.
This is my partition Table:
=================Partition Table=================
[root at m1 ~]# fdisk -l /dev/sda
Disk /dev/sda: 80.0 GB, 80026361856 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 9729 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 1 13 104391 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 14 1318 10482412+ 8e Linux LVM
/dev/sda3 1319 9729 67561357+ 5 Extended
/dev/sda5 1319 5234 31455238+ 83 Linux
/dev/sda6 5235 6480 10008463+ 83 Linux
============================================
sda1 and sda2 is dom0
sda5 is the virtual disk for the first domU
sda6 is the virtual disk for the second domU
sda5 and sda6 have their own partion maps as created by virt-manager:
=================Partition Table=================
[root at m1 ~]# fdisk -l /dev/sda5
Disk /dev/sda5: 32.2 GB, 32210164224 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 3915 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda5p1 * 1 13 104391 83 Linux
/dev/sda5p2 14 3915 31342815 8e Linux LVM
============================================
What is the easiest way to copy the whole disk (the dom0 and all domUs)
to my
new disk?
I think a simple "dd if=/dev/olddisk of=/dev/newdisk" won't do the job?
Mit freundlichen Grüßen, /// Kind Regards,
