I think there is no guarantee that the same configuration generates the same command line
on different hosts.

There are 2 possible solutions:

A. store the configuration at VM start (and use that configuration to start after migration)
B. Do not allow to modify the configuration while the VM is running (and hotplug disabled)

I think B.) is easier to implement.
