Nope! That's the one I was looking for. Too close to destroyVirtualMachine… didn't even see it ;-)

So it is doable. The question now being how fast this process will be, since the VM creation will ultimately be done on the hypervisor. What is the API that I could use to create a VM from a template? I am looking at the 4.1 REST API and there is nothing for creating under the Virtual Machine section for Root, Domain, or User. Thanks, Chip. You always have to specify a templateid param for the deployVirtualMachine API call [1]. Are you looking at some other API call? -chip [1] http://cloudstack.apache.org/docs/api/apidocs-4.1/user/deployVirtualMachine.html
