Hi All,
I am adding the ability to import a VM or a Template to a storage-domain,
when this VM or Template already exists in the destination storage domain.
Until now, Backend failed this. Now I want to enable the user to specify
that he wishes this VM/Template will be created again by a different name,
i.e - cloned.
[feature page:
http://www.ovirt.org/wiki/Features/ImportMoreThanOnce]
I plan to achieve this using a new parameter, but I want to reach an agreement
about this parameter's name. I thought simply to call it "clone".
Another thing that I'll do in the patch-set is add the currently-missing ability
to specify whether the snapshots of the VM, which is being imported, will
be collapsed into a single snapshot (we have this ability in GUI). I am also
deliberating about the name of this parameter. I thought about
"collapse_snapshots" (same as in GUI).
Does anyone think "clone" and "collapse_snapshots" are inappropriate
and has
better suggestions?
Thanks,
Gilad
