> The possible values of vmprofile.vmdisk were changed in 2.3 from local/network to dedicated/shared.  Code in VMware.pm and vbox.pm is checking only for "local" when an image is captured in order to determine whether or not to save a copy in both the datastore path and repository or only the repository.
> It is assumed that a VM host's local disk is used if vmdisk is local/dedicated and this disk may not have much capacity.  A copy is not saved to the datastore path if vmdisk is local/dedicated, the repository path is set, and mounted on the VM host in order to prevent space issues.
> When the DB values changed with 2.3, the code was not updated to check for "dedicated".  As a result, if the profile is set to "dedicated" a copy of the vmdk is being saved to the datastore path.
> All lines which check the value of vmprofile.vmdisk need to be updated to reflect the new values.
