> Description:
> The Import-Export functionality is only allowed for the Vmware hypervisor. The functionality is developed within a VM ingestion framework that allows the extension to other hypervisors. The Import-Export functionality consists on few APIs and the UI to interact with them:
>  * listUnmanagedInstances: Lists unmanaged virtual machines (not existing in CloudStack but existing on the hypervisor side)
>  * importUnmanagedInstance: Import an unmanaged VM into CloudStack (this implies populating the database with the corresponding data)
>  * unmanageVirtualMachine: Make CloudStack forget a VM but do not remove it on the hypervisor side
> The complexity on KVM should be parsing the existing XML domains into different resources and map them in CloudStack to populate the database correctly.
