Description Julio Entrena Perez 2013-07-25 10:44:50 UTC
Title: Importing a Virtual Machine into the Destination Data Center

Describe the issue:
When importing a guest from an export domain it's possible to choose the resulting format of the virtual disk between "Preallocated" and "Thin provisioned".

In order to do so, once in the "Import Virtual Machine(s)" dialog of Figure 8.19 user can click on the disk and an additional set of sub-tabs will appear.

By clicking on the third sub-tab "Disks" user can choose allocation policy for imported virtual disks in the pull-down under "Allocation Policy" column.

Please document such option.

Suggestions for improvement:
