Description Koutuk Shukla 2017-08-23 12:39:58 UTC 
Description of problem:

Unable to Import a VM linked with its template to RHV 4.1 from export domain imported of RHEV 3.5

We see below things when Importing a Template in RHV 4.1 from export domain imported from RHEV 3.5 environment. 

1. Click Import template from export domain. We see check mark in option 
"clone" already greyed out. Unable to remove this check mark.

2. Upon proceeding we get "Import conflict" dailog box asking to either "clone" change the name of the template OR "Do not Import".  This screen is seen even when we have no template with same name existing in RHV 4.1 environment.

3. We can import the template sucessfully by changing the name of the template in  "Import conflict" dailog box.

4. When we try to import the VM linked with the template. We see check mark in "collapse snapshot" option is greyed out. Unable to remove this check mark.

5. We also get below message. Not sure if this is a error or just a general message.

"Some imported VMs depend on one or more templates which are not available in the system. Therefore you must Import those VMs with 'collapse snapshots', another option is to Import missing templates first and then try import the VMs again"

6. VM can be imported but it is unlinked with the template because of "collapse snapshot" option.

We are unable to import the vm linked with the template from the export domain (imported from 3.5) to RHV 4.1 environment.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rhevm-4.1.2.3-0.1.el7.noarch

How reproducible: 100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Export a template & its linked VM in RHEV 3.5 environment to export domain.
2. Detach export domain and attach it to RHV 4.1 environment.
3. Try to Import the template and then its VM.

Actual results:

We are unable to import the vm linked with the template from the export domain (imported from 3.5) to RHV 4.1 environment.
Template is imported with name change. VM is imported without the link to template.

Expected results:

We should not get the "Import conflict" dailog box when trying to import the template which is new and no template with same name already exists. Also the vm should be imported without removing the link with the template.
