Hi Vivek,

Per our discussion about the migration of an in-use volume, I have done 
the following tests:

I took KVM as the hypervisor and LVM as the backend for cinder.
Configure two c-vol nodes.
Create the image in glance.
Create a volume from this image.
Boot a VM from this volume, so the volume becomes in-use and the VM is 
ready.
Migrate this in-use volume.

The result turns out fine finally and the volume is successfully migrated 
via the swap_volume method in Nova. I just send you this mail as a 
confirmation that swap_volume works for your use case.

Best wishes,
Vincent Hou (侯胜博)
