The
disk-size
parameter can be specified in bytes or using the IEC standard suffixes KiB (2
10
bytes),
MiB (2
20
bytes), GiB (2
30
bytes), and TiB (2
40
bytes).
The VM or VMs on which this operation should be performed are selected using the standard selection
mechanism (see
VM selectors
). Optional arguments can be any number of the
VM parameters
listed at the
beginning of this section.
vm-disk-list
vm-disk-list
[vbd-params] [vdi-params] [
<vm-selector>
=
<vm_selector_value>
...]
Lists disks attached to the specified VMs. The
vbd-params
and
vdi-params
parameters control the fields
of the respective objects to output and should be given as a comma-separated list, or the special key
all
for the complete list.
The VM or VMs on which this operation should be performed are selected using the standard selection
mechanism (see
VM selectors
). Optional arguments can be any number of the
VM parameters
listed at the
beginning of this section.
vm-disk-remove
vm-disk-remove
device=
<integer_label_of_disk>
[
<vm-selector>
=
<vm_selector_value>
...]
Remove a disk from the specified VMs and destroy it.
The VM or VMs on which this operation should be performed are selected using the standard selection
mechanism (see
VM selectors
). Optional arguments can be any number of the
VM parameters
listed at the
beginning of this section.
vm-export
vm-export
filename=
<export_filename>
[metadata=
<true | false>
]
[
<vm-selector>
=
<vm_selector_value>
...]
Export the specified VMs (including disk images) to a file on the local machine. Specify the filename to export
the VM into using the
filename
parameter. By convention, the filename should have a
.xva
extension.
If the
metadata
parameter is
true
, then the disks are not exported, and only the VM metadata is written
to the output file. This is intended to be used when the underlying storage is transferred through other
).
The VM or VMs on which this operation should be performed are selected using the standard selection
mechanism (see
VM selectors
). Optional arguments can be any number of the
VM parameters
listed at the
beginning of this section.
vm-import
vm-import
filename=
<export_filename>
[metadata=
<true | false>
]
[preserve=
<true | false>
]
[sr-uuid=
<destination_sr_uuid>
]
Import a VM from a previously-exported file. If
preserve
is set to
true
, the MAC address of the original
VM will be preserved. The
sr-uuid
determines the destination SR to import the VM into, and is the default
SR if not specified.
