[Users] api question / create vm from template
hi, i've been successful in creating a VM from a template, however, that VM is a thin-provisioned one ? is it possible to make it a cloned / pre-provisioned ? otherwise i wont be able to update/remove the template when i need to ? this is on ovirt 3.1 thanks alex -- | RHCE | Sen Sys Engineer / Platform Architect | www.vcore.co | www.vsearchcloud.com |
oh, and it'd be good if one can set the storage domain to use, what virtual nic the network card is to be assigned, etc. ? On 4 April 2013 11:03, Alex Leonhardt <alex.tuxx@gmail.com> wrote:

Resource allocation tab will allow you to choose between thin provision and clone. On 04/04/2013 01:03 PM, Alex Leonhardt wrote:

- to clone vm from template in python sdk do: vm_params_holder = params.VM(disks=params.Disks(clone=True), ...) api.vms.add(vm_params_holder) - to create vm with pre-allocated disk/s, you can modify disk/s config during creation of vm by: template = api.templates.get(name="xxx") template_disks = template.disks.list() for disk in template_disks: #modify disk config here vm_params_holder = params.VM(disks=params.Disks(disk=template_disks)) api.vms.add(vm_params_holder)
