[ovirt-devel] can't clone vm from export domain via rest/json

[Sven Kieske]

Hi,

I need some devel power here:

this is on ovirt 3.3.3 el6 (yes I know, I need to upgrade..)

error while cloning a vm from export to local storage data domain:

{

"storageDomain":{"id":"15679d40-0f20-4a0e-9880-eb5795cb8d1e","name":"LOCAL_DATA_DOMAIN_NAME"},
  "cluster":{"id":"e65dc5f5-61e6-4d17-a5bf-33c677d129c7"},
  "vm":{"name":"VM_NAME_1"},
    "clone":true
}



ANSWER:
{
"storageDomain":{
"name":"LOCAL_DATA_DOMAIN_NAME",
"id":"15679d40-0f20-4a0e-9880-eb5795cb8d1e"
},
"cluster":{
"id":"e65dc5f5-61e6-4d17-a5bf-33c677d129c7"
},
"vm":{
"name":"VM_NAME_2"
},
"clone":true,
"status":{
"state":"failed"
},
"fault":{
"reason":"Operation Failed",
"detail":"[action type failed import clone not collapsed]"
}
}


why does it fail?

this vm was exported from this storage domain onto the export
domain and should then get re-imported as another vm-name

is this because of lacking/inconsistent json support in 3.3.z?

until now we were able to reverse engineer all needed functionality
via json.
