------------------------------------------
Summary: [VMWare] Support OVA files with multiple disks for
templates and uploaded volumes
Key: CLOUDSTACK-4757
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-4757
Project: CloudStack
Issue Type: Improvement
Security Level: Public (Anyone can view this level - this is the default.)
Components: Storage Controller
Affects Versions: Future
Reporter: Likitha Shetty
Assignee: Likitha Shetty
Fix For: Future
Currently, Cloudstack only supports Template creation based on OVA files
containing a single disk. If a user creates a template from a OVA file
containing more than 1 disk and launches an instance using this template, only
the first disk is attached to the new instance and other disks are ignored.
Similarly with uploaded volumes, attaching an uploaded volume that contains
multiple disks to a VM will result in only one VMDK to being attached to the VM.
This behavior needs to be improved in VMWare to support OVA files with multiple
disks for both uploaded volumes and templates. i.e. If a user creates a
template from a OVA file containing more than 1 disk and launches an instance
using this template, the first disk should be attached to the new instance as
the ROOT disk and volumes should be created based on other VMDK disks in the
OVA file and should be attached to the instance.
