Templates sharing

Latest response

Hi all!

I have found in documentation that templates can be shared between different storage domains and datacenters using export/import on export domain. And how about sharing templates between different RHEV Managers?

Is there a possibility to prepare a template with installed OS and applications and export it to any RHEV infrastructure with Manager, hypervisor, storage and so on?

 

I have explored my external domain that I used for template exporting and have found the sophisticated structure of dirs and  files:

 

./dom_md

./dom_md/leases

./dom_md/ids

./dom_md/inbox

./dom_md/outbox

./dom_md/metadata

Will this work if I’ll create an archive with this data, put it on another storage, unpack and attach to another RHEV infrastructure? Is there any dependencies between export domains and RHEV-M database?

 

Thanks in advance!
