    Yes, thanks, this is exactly what I want to accomplish.<br>
    BTW, are export domains from different data centers visible to each
    other?<br>
    <br>
    If not, wouldn&#39;t be simpler to export VM#1 in DC #1 to Export domain
    #1, copy over ssh to DC #2 Export domain, and finally import it into
    DC #2.<br>
