In the first case you are creating a disposableVM, based on a a DVM
Template, fedora-28-dvm 
In the second case you are creating a DVM Template, which will be used
as the basis for disposableVMs.

That is the difference, and it's why you cant resize the named dvm - the
named dvm takes its properties from the underlying DVM Template.
