Fixed In Version:
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Previously, an imported VM always had 'Cloud-Init/Sysprep' turned on. The Manager created a VmInit even when one did not exist in the OVF file of the OVA. The current release fixes this issue: The imported VM only has 'Cloud-Init/Sysprep' turned on if the OVA had it enabled. Otherwise, it is disabled.

Description Abhishekh Patil 2018-12-05 21:29:09 UTC 
Description of problem:

Importing a Virtual Machine OVA always enables 'Cloud-init/Sysprep' even though it is unchecked/disabled before exporting. 

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

ovirt-engine-4.2.7.5-0.1.el7ev.noarch

How reproducible:
[100%]

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a VM and keep 'Cloud_Init/Sysprep' unchecked. 
2. Export the VM as OVA
3. Now, Import the exported OVA.
4. Edit the VM(which is imported using the OVA) and check if 'Cloud_Init/Sysprep' is enabled.

Actual results:

'Cloud_Init/Sysprep' is enabled by default even though it is disabled before exporting. 

Expected results:

'Cloud_Init/Sysprep' should not be enabled after import if it is disabled before export.

Re-targeting to 4.3.1 since it is missing a patch, an acked blocker flag, or both

Verified on:
- ovirt-engine-4.4.0-0.15.master.el7.noarch

Verification steps:
1. Create a VM and make sure 'Initial Run > Use Cloud-Init/Sysprep' is unchecked.
2. Export the VM as OVA.
3. Import the vm from the exported OVA file.

Result:

- VM is imported and 'Initial Run > Use Cloud-Init/Sysprep' remain unchecked.
