Hi Thomas,
That makes perfect sense, the VMs created from a template file are all
created with the same name, whereas the instantiate method was giving them
different ones. The problem is that VMs are the only objects that can
repeat names even with the same owner, and that is not taken into account
for the cache name index method, PoolSQL::key.
Your patch looks fine, I'll run a few tests and upload a fix soon.
Thank you for your great feedback!
Carlos
