Re: [Xen-API] VDI import/export with deltas

[Olivier Lambert <lambert.olivier@xxxxxxxxx>]

What a great news!

Correct me if I'm wrong:
- VM export: export of VM meta-data (config, number of RAM, CPU,
network) + all its VDI
- VDI export: just any VDI
- VDI "diff" export: any VDI, delta since a precise snapshot

Is there a possibility to export a "whole" VM diff (config + all its
VDI since a snapshot)?


Thanks!


Olivier.
