Hi all, You can look at http://ovirt.org/wiki/Features/CloneVmFromSnapshot
And see the feature document for Clone VM from Snapshot.
Comments are more than welcome (planning on providing a the detailed document soon)
apart from the ongoing discussion on this, my main comment is it should be possible to clone a VM in down state directly, without a need to create snapshots on it.
This is possible today by creating a template from the VM, then instantiating VMs from the template via thin or clone. Clone VM should allow to remove the need of creating a template.
Only clone would be supported of course, though the VM is thinly provisioned from a template, then cloning only the thinly provisioned disks rather than the entire disks would be good as well)
I commented on this requirement on the other thread. If it is ok with you let's try to have all related discussions on the other thread for making it easy to track.
