Comment 5 for bug 1456073

SSH is based on TCP, so the connection breaks only if the the disruption is so long to cause a timeout. I wonder if extending the timeout would allow us to see no perceived application disruption. If that was the case, then yes...this is most likely affected by the fact that it takes time for Neutron to react to the live migration event and reprovision resources on the landing host.

@Oleg: Ensuring that DVR namespaces are on the 'landing' host before the VM gets actually migrated (what Swami is referring to as 'pre-live-migration-step') would indeed help the DVR case, because that's instrumental for the floating IP traffic to flow through the VM's fixed IP. Wouldn't you agree?
