Template Clone/Independent vs Thin/Dependent
Hi, I am using the ovirt 3.5 and when i create VM from the template through Ovirt web portal, it displays Template is "Clone/Independent"but with the same template When i create through REST API, it shows "Thin/Dependent"... I Found one email thread ( https://www.mail-archive.com/users@ovirt.org/msg21271.html ) from the community for the same issue but even using their method still it display the same "Thin/Dependent". I am using the following xml :- <vm> <name>$name</name> <cluster> <name>phase1</name> </cluster> <cpu> <topology cores='$core' sockets='$socket'/> </cpu> <memory>$memory</memory> <template> <name>$templatetype</name> </template> <disks> <clone>true</clone> </disks> </vm> I have attached the screen shots , please check it. -- Regards Shanil

Your XML looks correct. I used it in my 3.5 environment and it works correctly, creating "Clone/Independent" virtual machines. What kind of storage are you using? NFS? Can you try the following script and report the results? #!/bin/sh -ex url="https://engine.example.com/ovirt-engine/api"; user="admin@internal" password="******" curl \ --verbose \ --insecure \ --request POST \ --user "${user}:${password}" \ --header "Content-Type: application/xml" \ --header "Accept: application/xml" \ --data " <vm> <name>myvm</name> <cluster> <name>mycluster</name> </cluster> <template> <name>mytemplate</name> </template> <disks> <clone>true</clone> </disks> </vm> " \ "${url}/vms" -- Dirección Comercial: C/Jose Bardasano Baos, 9, Edif.

I can't reproduce this, not even with the same storage that you used. Can you please try with the simple script that I suggested in the previous message and report the results?
