Ok.
I extracted the ovf and removed the files of one VM (c2) and then
created a new ovf and was able to upload the other VM now (infra)
I was also able to import the VM, add a nic to it and start ok on the
new infrastructure.
SO far so good.
This way implies power off of the source VM. Is there a way to export
a running VM or is it on the roadmap?
Or some way to make a snapshot of a running VM and export it without
powering down the original VM?
you can take a live snapshot.
i don't remember if we allow exporting a snapshot of a running VM (no
technical reason not to).
if we for some reason don't, you could clone the snapshot to a VM, then
export that VM (ugly, so i hope we support exporting a snapshot of a
running VM)
