Screencast: OpenVZ Live Migration
I just recently started playing around with installing desktop environments inside of a VPS. It takes a little work as you really don't want to accidentally replace your vzdev package with a distro's stock udev package. Anyway, the video below was resized for embedded flash playback and there is no sound. If you want a MUCH higher quality video, you can can right-click and save as: openvz-via-vnc-with-migration.ogg.
Read the full article for the embedded video because I didn't want it to stretch out the front page.

excellent live container migration video
To checkpoint of a fully running virtual environment with no downtime to another node make OpenVZ a really compelling solution for production environments. No service interruptions to end users - no data loss..
The video is excellent even without audio..
