No, migrate does "dead" migration on a server.  Essentially snapshots the drive transfers it to a new server and reboots.  Migrate and live-migration do need to be consolidated.

Um, OK. How do I specify where to migrate to?

nova help migrate
usage: nova migrate [--poll]<server>

Migrate a server.

Positional arguments:
   <server>   Name or ID of server.

Optional arguments:
   --poll    Blocks while instance migrates so progress can be reported.

Slightly confused. :)

Cheers,
Florian
