Hi,

I'm trying to clone a VM from snapshot with the below code. but it is not cloning..

org.ovirt.engine.sdk.decorators.VM vm2 = api.getVMs().get("testVM"); VM cloneVM = new VM(); cloneVM.setName("MyClonedViaAPI"); VMSnapshot snap3 = new VMSnapshot(null); snap3 = vm2.getSnapshots().get(UUID.fromString("7799ce3f-a007-415a-84c5-df323e8f440d")); Action act = new Action(); act.setClone(true); act.setVm(cloneVM); snap3.restore(act);

Actually, my original goal is to Clone VM directly from another VM instead of cloning from snapshot.

Can you help me?

Just pasting here code given by Juan H for Java SDK to perform that : You will need something like this: // Find the original VM: VM vm = api.getVMs().get("myvm"); // Find the cluster where the cloned VM will be created: Cluster cluster = vm.getCluster(); // Populate the parameters to create the snapshot: Snapshot snapshot = new Snapshot(); snapshot.setDescription("My snapshot"); // Send the request to create the snapshot. Note that you need the // returned snapshot object in order to have the id assigned to // that snapshot by the system. snapshot = vm.getSnapshots().add(snapshot); String id = snapshot.getId(); UUID uuid = UUID.fromString(id); // Wait till the snapshot creation is completed: for ( { snapshot = vm.getSnapshots().get(uuid); if (!"locked".equals(snapshot.getSnapshotStatus())) { break; } Thread.sleep(1 * 1000); } // Populate the parameters to create the cloned VM: VM clone = new VM(null); clone.setName("myclone"); clone.setCluster(cluster); Snapshots snapsshots = new Snapshots(); snapsshots.getSnapshots().add(snapshot); clone.setSnapshots(snapsshots); // Send the request to create the cloned VM: api.getVMs().add(clone);

-- Thanks & Regards Tejesh
