That is incorrect. Disks of a VM that was cloned from an existing VM *are*
copies of the disks the latter.
The process of cloning a VM from an existing VM is similar to cloning a VM
from a snapshot. When cloning from a snapshot we enable the user to choose
a target storage domain for each disk. We don't provide this option in the
webadmin when cloning from an existing VM. There is a chance, however, that
it works from REST-API since both operationgs use similar parameters and
the same code for creating the disks. Need to try.
