The VM or VMs on which this operation should be performed are selected using the standard selection
mechanism (see

listed at the

Clone an existing VM, using storage-level fast disk clone operation where available. Specify the name
and the optional description for the resulting cloned VM using the

new-name-label
and
new-name-
description
arguments.

...]
Calculate the maximum amount of static memory which can be allocated to an existing VM, using the total
amount of physical RAM as an upper bound. The optional parameter
amount of physical RAM as an upper bound. The optional parameter
approximate
reserves sufficient extra
memory in the calculation to account for adding extra vCPUs into the VM at a later date.
For example:
xe vm-compute-maximum-memory vm=testvm total=`xe host-list params=memory-free --minimal`
This command uses the value of the
memory-free
parameter returned by the xe host-list command to set the
maximum memory of the VM named
testvm
.

Copy an existing VM, but without using storage-level fast disk clone operation (even if this is available). The disk
images of the copied VM are guaranteed to be "full images", that is, not part of a copy-on-write (CoW) chain.

Specify the name and the optional description for the resulting copied VM using the
new-name-label

new-name-description
arguments.
Specify the destination SR for the resulting copied VM using the
sr-uuid
. If this parameter is not specified, the
destination is the same SR that the original VM is in.
