I don=92t think that=92s what we are looking for. With this process, if =
I have an X size virtual disk, I have to come up with X+2X more storage =
to go through this silly import process. With ESXi, I just right click, =
add to inventory and I=92m off.
Right now, I=92m looking at moving my AIO configuration to a new host. =
I=92ll have to create the new AIO host, create a new storage domain on =
the old disks, create new VMs that look like the old ones, create new =
virtual disks, then go rummage around the storage, figure out what=92s =
what in these user unfriendly UUID names, then move the old images onto =
the new ones.
With ESXi, I just reinstall the hypervisor, create the new VM, then =
right click, add to inventory on the old disk image, and I=92m done.

The concept of storage domains seems rather clumsy and limited to me.
