We plan to configure a HA Cluster using 2 boxes with Xen and 2 replicated DSS boxes (as far as I understad DSS will support now automatic failover).
The Disks for the VM will be iSCSI mounted volumes on DSS box.

Does anyone have experience in live migration of a Xen VM?

I dont think that auto failover feature has been released yet, I hear it will be released soon. No, I have not yet done a XEN migration.

Hello,
yes we use this configuration since apr. 3 Month - no problems so far.
The Live Migration takes about 5 to 10 seconds with no loss of service.

Great improvements in XenServer 4.1 handling iscsi Targets and much higher iscsi throughput.
