[Users] Copy disks?

Hi All, When in the top tab Disks and a disk is selected I can do Add, Remove, Move but Copy is always greyed out, no matter what I try. Doesn't matter if the disk is thin provisioned or not, whether it is attached to a VM or not, whether the VM is running or not. How does one copy a disk? Or when is that button active? Regards, Joop -- irc: jvandewege

Great, forgot the version used: 3.2.1 on Fedora-18
Yes, I know snapshotting the VM and then copying the snapshot doesn't work on 3.2.1, will upgrade to 3.2.2 today. Joop

Hi, The copy operation is currently supported for template disks. If you have a template, try to select one of it's disk and the operation should become available. ----- Original Message -----

the copy option is only for templates, it copies a template's disk to other domains so you are able to create vms from the template on more than one domain. On 06/04/2013 11:10 AM, noc wrote:
