Right. There's an LXC driver in p.haul already. However, we still have issue
with restoring LXC container back to the LXC daemon watching one.

Deyan (in Cc) is looking at this issue at the moment.

We have an article describing how to prepare LXC container so that it's
migratable (http://criu.org/LXC), but yes, it's far from being complete :(

In theory it should be -- create LXC container on NFS according to the article
above, then run

# p.haul lxc $name $destination

But Andrey and Deyan should know more :)

You're welcome, and thanks for your attention to the project ;)
