[one-users] how to predeploy image

[Łukasz Grabowski]

Hi,

I am using OpenNebula 1.4 and Haizea 1.0. I want to predeploy an image so
that the VM could start at the scheduled by haizea time.
How can I predeploy a VM's image? I would appreciate clarification.

I had several ideas how to make it work but I didn't succeed.
1. I tried to copy a prepared image to the default directory
(/var/lib/one/<VM-id>/images/) in which it should be stored when a new VM is
created.
2. Then I tried to do the same and to create transfer.0.prolog file (after
reading one of the generated by opennebula) but it didn't work.
3. I tried even set the source in DISK section in VM template to the copied
file in the destination.
However, everytime I can see in VM log, that the image is copied.

I am enclosing VM log and VM template
