> Key: VCL-1008
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VCL-1008
> Project: VCL
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: vcld (backend)
> Reporter: Andy Kurth
> Assignee: Andy Kurth
> Fix For: 2.5
>
>
> The {{libvirt.pm}} and {{KVM.pm}} provisioning modules are hard-coded to
> configure VMs with an IDE disk and the default rtl8139 network interface. If
> an image is captured from a VM which is configured with better devices such
> as virtio, VMs created from the image should also be configured with the same
> device types.
> The capture sequence will need to be extended to save the captured VM's
> hardware in a text file. There is already code to do so.
> The load sequence will be extended to read the text file for the image
> revision if it exists and use the values it contains.
