Created attachment 1181962 [details] Engine and vdsm log Description of problem: Template disk copy doesn't appears in the environment after storage domain detached and attached back. The user should re-create the disk copy to the attached domain even that the disk already exist on the domain. When reattaching the storage domain, the template disk copy should register back to the template implicitly. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Engine - 4.0.1.1-0.1.el7ev How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1.Create Template from Vm with attached disk 2.Create a copy of the created template disk on another storage domain 3.Create thin copy VM from the created template, choose the storage domain from step 2 for the VM disk. 4.Detach the storage domain from step 2 5.Attach the storage domain from step 2 back to the environment 6.Import the VM from step 3 Actual results: VM cannot import back because the template disk doesn't exists on the imported domain Expected results: Template disk should register implicitly. Additional info:
Maor, I recall this behavior is by design, but I don't remember the reason behind it. Can you chime in here?

Indeed, this was already discussed and solved at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1302780#c6 We have decided that once the user will decide to copy the volume to another storage domain, and that domain will contain this disk copy there will be only a DB operation and not a low level copy so the operation will be much faster. I think that the main reason we didn't want to make it implicitly is that it the same reason we didn't want to register floating disks automatically once the storage domain is being attached (There is also the Quota and profile issues) Based on https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1302780#c6, closing it as duplicate *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 1302780 ***
