NBD scripts, courtesy of Kurt Garloff:

For domain migration, unless you use a rootless setup, you need
to have network storage available. For the poor people like me that
have no SAN, one easy possibility to have it is to use nbd.

Find attached the block-nbd script (in /etc/xen/scripts/) and
an example config file. The block-nbd script is based on the -enbd one.
They have been used successfully in the Xen Tutorial at Linux Kongress.
