Almost certainly not. Enabling virtio is just a change in a single config file, and a full stop/start of the VM. However, they may have to move your VM to another host (one with a newer libkvm perhaps) which could take upwards of several minutes. Or days even, if they copy your data down to a portal drive, walk downstairs, down the street a few dozen blocks... maybe to the next town, sleep, eat, etc etc etc You get the idea. -Bryce Chidester br...@cobryce.com
