I copy the disk, swap and cfg files.... What do you mean with full system?

If i understand right you just "backup" the disk images - not the full
system? 
This will result in a defect copy of your DomU.

Not shure where you get the SysRQ error, but if i read right this is the
result of your sysrq command before pausing the domu.

The correct way would be to shutdown the DomU smoothly before copying it if
you have no other option.

Or did i miss something here?


best regards,


Niels.
