Export VMs

Greetings all!

We currently have a XenServer 6.1 pool being managed by a CloudStack 4.1.1
deployment. We have a client that would like to export a number of VMs so
they can import them into their own XenServer pool. What would be the best
way to accomplish this? I know that I can download individual volumes. Can
CloudStack export VMs as OVFs or similar? The only reference to exporting I
can find in the documentation is for templates. The section on exporting
templates does not state what format they can be exported in.

Thanks in advance,


Billy Ramsay

In practice, it works.

I had to do this in order to get back a template that i want to use with a xencenter's managed xenserver pool.

AW: Quota Usage

Posted by "Jochim, Ingo" <In...@bautzen-it.de>.
As I guess the allocation of resources is important for the quota.

I like to know how close different projects are to their quota limits.

Thanks,
Ingo

Is there a way (in ACS 4.2) to find out the current quota usage of a project?

Thanks,

For XenServer it will be VHD files.  Make Template from VM, download it, import it and re-create VM from template. Should work theoretically.
