[one-users] problem cloning vm image on shared datastore

[Maicon Stihler]

Hi Jaime,

thanks for your reply. I'll follow your advice and try the GlusterFS
mailing list. Meanwhile I changed the clone script to use dd in place of cp
as a work around (strangely dd seems to work as expected).

Best regards,
Maicon
