is-a-snapshot
true if this VDI is a VM storage snapshot
read only
snapshot_of

the UUID(s) of all snapshots of this VDI
read only
snapshot_time
the timestamp of the snapshot operation
that created this VDI

vdi-clone
vdi-clone
uuid=
<uuid_of_the_vdi>
[driver-params:
<key=value>
]
Create a new, writable copy of the specified VDI that can be used directly. It is a variant of
vdi-copy that is
capable of exposing high-speed image clone facilities where they exist.
The optional
driver-params
map parameter can be used for passing extra vendor-specific configuration
information to the back end storage driver that the VDI is based on. See the storage vendor driver
documentation for details.

Create a VDI.
The
virtual-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).
Note:
SR types that support sparse allocation of disks (such as Local VHD and NFS) do not enforce virtual allocation
of disks. Users should therefore take great care when over-allocating virtual disk space on an SR. If an over-
