This is the example to use Storage Migration function for virtual machines.
本节演示了虚拟机存储迁移功能。

The different point of Storage Migration from Live Migration is that Storage Migration does not need a Storage server which has virtual machine images, when executing

存储迁移与在线迁移的不同点是：当执行迁移时，存储迁移不需要有一个存有虚拟机镜像的存储服务器。

Storage Migration, virtual machine image on a KVM host is migrated on another KVM host like follows.

存储迁移，将一台KVM主机上的虚拟机镜像迁移到另一台KVM主机上，如下图示：

         Storage Migration
                        <------------------->
                        
+----------------------+                     +----------------------+
|  [   KVM Host #1  ]  |10.0.0.21   10.0.0.22|  [  KVM Host #2   ]  |
|                      +---------------------+                      |
|  kvm01.server.world  |                     |  kvm02.server.world  |
+----------------------+                     +----------------------+

1、Create a virtual machine on a KVM host.

在一个KVM主机上创建一个虚拟机镜像。

2、Show the file size of a virtual machine image like follows on a KVM host and move to another KVM host, create a empty disk space like follows.

按如下方式，在一个KVM主机上显示要迁移到另一个KVM主机上的虚拟机镜像文件的大小，按如下方式创建一个空磁盘空间。

# show the size of Virtual machine

[root@kvm01 ~]# ll /var/kvm/images

total 846468
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 32212254720 Aug  6 22:00 centos.img

### on another KVM host ###

# create a disk space which is the same size of a virtula machine
[root@kvm02 ~]#fallocate -l 32212254720 /var/kvm/images/centos.img
[root@kvm02 ~]# ll /var/kvm/images

total 31457284
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 32212254720 Aug  6 22:10 centos.img 

3、It's OK all, execute Storage Migration like follows.

一切正常运行后，按如下方式执行存储器迁移：

[root@kvm01 ~]#virsh list

 Id    Name             State
--------------------------------------
 2     centos           running

[root@kvm01 ~]#virsh migrate --live --copy-storage-all centos qemu+ssh://10.0.0.22/system
root@10.0.0.22's password:

[root@kvm01 ~]#virsh list

 Id    Name             State
--------------------------------------

 

# just migrated

### on another KVM host ###

[root@kvm02 ~]#virsh list

 Id    Name              State
---------------------------------------
 1     centos            running

# back to another host, it's OK to execute normal Live Migration

[root@kvm02 ~]#virsh migrate --live centos qemu+ssh://10.0.0.21/system
root@10.0.0.21's password:

[root@kvm02 ~]#virsh list

 Id    Name             State
--------------------------------------
