Issues with Live Migration on new rollout

Hello all,
I have an issue I wonder if someone can help with.  I've created a new advanced-network Cloudstack demo farm with 2 KVM hosts, management server, and NFS storage SAN
I have enabled advanced networking with guest, public, management, and storage all on physical nic 1

I've created a couple of test vm instances, one from the  stock Centos 5 template, and the other a basic load from CD of Windows Server 2008 Rs with SP1.
When I try to perform a live migration and click on the icon, I don't get the popup asking for which host to move to.

Selecting any system vm or virtual router and migrating to the other host works fine

Is there something I need to do to my virtual guests to enable live migration?  The administrator guide says to install xen- or vm- tools for Xen or Vmware, but makes no mention of KVM...

Update:

OK, so it appears to be a compute service definition issue.  I can migrate any host with statically defined compute services, but any host assigned to a "custom" compute service offering does nothing when you click on the migrate button.  Is this by design?  Is there a setting somewhere I can override to fix this?
