Hi there,
i am trying to understand something that bothering me for some time now.

A running domain has two things that someone needs to take backup.
So there is the disk and the state.

Using snapshots as checkpoint someone can take the disk snapshot
but i cant understand how to "transfer" the saved state from "backup ed" disk.

Reading through Kashyap's and Eric's posts (mostly) i can now
understand a lot about
backing up and snapshotting but i cant figure out (perhaps i need to
read more) how to
boot up the snapshot disk with the saved (?) state.

Thanks in advance
