Description David Jaša 2013-11-01 12:15:03 UTC
Description of problem:
Sometimes, e.g. when physical data center layout changes, it makes sense to edit exported templates/VMs right on export domain and then just import them multiple times, saving the import/edit/reexport cycle.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
3.3

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. try to edit exported VM or Template
2.
3.

Actual results:

Could you elaborate what options you would like to edit?

Because some of the underlying stuff changes. Take networks: when it's name is different at import time, your VM won't work till you fix it, but you can't fix anything till the import is over which is longish operation. Being able to tailor the VM/Template to destination setup before import makes more sense.

Ok, so I'd say this isn't to edit it on the export domain but rather when pushing import button you'd like to be able to edit these options before clicking 'ok', esp. considering that networks for example would depend on the target of the import so only relevant to current import operation.
would you agree?

That would suffice, too.
