The IP address of the host is different, but the IP address seen by the guest is the same. Live migration has been possible for several years with qemu, and people do it all the time. The guest sees very minimal downtime (a few milliseconds). If you use a higher-layer software, like libvirt, then triggering a live migration of a guest is quite easy. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
