The plugin will allow users to add a new storage domain= and rapidly clone VMs using the native ONTAP APIs. Our plan is to do this = outside of oVirt in a separate engine and then register the new storage dom= ain or cloned VMs through the REST API. I've been going through the oVirt code and I'm not able to find a way to re= gister an existing VM or disk through the REST API. Am I missing something = or is this functionality that needs to be added? As part of the cloning pro= cess we can generate new UUIDs for the cloned disks and images, but I don't= see a way to get them recognized by oVirt. This functionality is very important to moving forward on our plugin and I = can certainly help add this capability if needed. -Chris Chris Morrissey Software Engineer NetApp Inc. 919.476.4428 --_000_D290AD8432118048947689BA3AE8A9B3EBCEB7SACEXCMBX04PRDhqn_ Content-Type: text/html; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <html xmlns:v=3D"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml" xmlns:o=3D"urn:schemas-micr= osoft-com:office:office" xmlns:w=3D"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:word" = xmlns:m=3D"http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/2004/12/omml" xmlns=3D"http:= //www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40"> <head> <meta http-equiv=3D"Content-Type" content=3D"text/html; charset=3Dus-ascii"=
