Hi,

I see that the xen-duplicate-image support is discontinued upstream.
However, it would be nice to be able to duplicate images easily (one can
copy the images or LVM and change the configuration, or archive an
existing image with tar and use the tar file option of
xen-create-image), but it means doing several steps for this operation.

xen-create-image with the appropriate option could verify that a machine
is stopped to prevent corruption, and use an existing image or lv as
source to create a new image with the correct networking configuration.

What do you think ?

Regards,
