Greetings,

I've built several new templates from the blank template and a ISO
install of various OS's. However, when I built a new VM using the new
template(s), the new VM still says it's based from the blank template. I
expected it to say it was from the "template-foo" U specified. The VM is
correctly built from the template so I think it's a generation/database
issue.


I'm guessing you used 'clone' (default for new server) rather than 'thinly provisioned' (default for new desktop). clone means the template disk is copied/cloned for better performance, rather than COW (less space). when the disk is cloned, there is no longer a relation to the original template at storage level.
