[ovirt-users] Extract snapshot from an image

[Demeter Tibor]

Hi, 
I have 3.5. 

I've found the clone button,that will create a new virtual machine. 
But I need the image from the storage. 
Is that will make an individual image, or the parent will be the orifiginal image file? Can I copy the cloned machine to an external HDD? 

Thanks 
Tibor
