Hi,

I'm quite a noob here, so maybe my question can sound stupid.
I'm currently using CloudWeavers, actually running ONE 4.0 and MooseFS 
for storage of /var/lib/one (to take snapshots to use as backup / DR tool)

It is to be said I manage "cats" and not "kettle" (to cite @cdaffara at 
#OpenNebulaConf) so I use ONE to manage small infrastructures where 
almost all server images are persistent and I need to take care of (I 
dont just fire up 100 vms for sci-calc but I manage few critical vms 
taking advantage of all the features ONE + MFS can give me for 
reliability and flexybility).

After this preamble I tell you what my problem is: I didnt find an easy 
way to know which filename an image has in /var/lib/one/datastores/1. 
For now I look for it in the folder at time of creation and I take note 
(or I search in the LOG of the vm). But ...

it's there a easier way to get FILENAME out of IMAGE_ID?

thanks
Lorenzo
