[Kimchi-devel] [WIP PATCH 0/5] Clone VMs

[Crístian Viana]

To clone a VM, try the following command:

POST /vms/<vm-name>/clone.

This is a work in progress! It's not finished yet and there are bugs! I'm only
sending it now to get early feedback.

I'm aware of the following issues:

- BUG: cannot delete a recently cloned VM. This is because the clone function
  doesn't refresh the VM storage pools. I already started fixing this.
- The storage volumes handling is not implemented. The current implementation
  should only work for DIR and NFS (well, it doesn't work completely because of
  the bug described above...).
- The mockmodel implementation is missing.
- The tests are missing.

Crístian Viana (5):
  Make function "randomMAC" public
  Register Kimchi's namespace when updating XML
  Allow to update XML attribute in "xml_item_update"
  Render different types of data in generate_action_handler
  Add feature to clone VMs
