[one-users] Query on Clone in opennebula

[Ruben S. Montero]

Hi,

The save attribute can be only yes or no. Although your suggestion,
i.e specify the path to place the VM, is quite interesting...

If you want to save the image just shutdown the VM and those disks
with save=yes, will be copied back to the OpenNebula front-end in
$ONE_LOCATION/var/$VID as disk.0, disk.1... (being disk.0 the first
disk in the template and so on...).

Also, if you issue a onevm stop, the images are saved in the
$ONE_LOCATION. So you can also use it to "save" a modified image if
you have forgotten to put save="yes" in the disks...

Cheers

Ruben
