> To restore a VM to a different/original template, user can use restoreVirtualMachine API with templateId parameter or create the VM from a service offering that has isVolatile set to true and then reboot the VM.
> In 4.2 this functionality is not working as expected in a VMware environment. When a VM restore is called the VM is not restored to the right template, instead the VM continues to use the original template.
