Hello,

in recent versions of oVirt (eg my last 4.4.10) there is the feature to make a clone of a running  VM.

This operation passes through a temporary VM snapshot (then automatically deleted) and cloning of this snapshot.

Sometimes there is a need to clone a VM but only a subset of its disks is required (eg in my case I want to retain boot disk, 20Gb, and dedicated sw disk, 20Gb, but not data disk, that usually is big... in my case 200Gb).

In this scenario I have to go the old path where I explicitly create a snapshot of the VM, where I can select a subset of the disks, then I clone the snapshot and last I delete the snapshot.

Do you think it is interesting to have the option of selecting disks when you clone a running VM and go automatic..?

If I want to open a bugzilla as RFE, what components and options I have to select?

Thanks,

Gianluca
