thx for you help,  we migrating few hundreds VMware VM and physical machine
to KVM(by convert to qcow2 format), so if i can direct use the
DISK/SOURCE attribute,it is the convenient way to achieve our goal.

but for now, i had to register the image (use the SOURCE attribute ,so it
don't copy the VM image to the datastores ),then create the VM template.
it's a little bit inconvenient , and result a lot image entry in oneimage
list command.  is there any good idea ?
