While I am trying to prepare a migration from 4.3 to 4.4 with the base OS switch, I am exploring all variants of moving VMs. OVA export/import and export domains have issues and failures so now I am trying backup domains and fail to understand how they are to be used and the sparse documentation does not help. It says: 1. create a clone VM 2. move the cloned VM's disks to the backup domain and then moves on to the next topic What I find missing: 1. How do I move the cloned VM (basically whatever configuration data is not inside the disk) away from the active domain? 2. Can I just delete it, because 'magically' the OVF store on the backup domain will contain all VM data for any VM that has disk images there? 3. A matching reovery/restore procdure: Is it really just as simple as moving the disk back (with the OVF/XML definition silently following)? In terms of usability I'd really love a clone where I can specify the storage domain target...
