The requirement would be to provide the ability to > deploy user instances from selected VM snapshots. Additionally, any VM > snapshot in the hierarchy can be deployed concurrently. > Even though this can be supported and applicable to all hypervisors, to > start with this feature is supported only for VMware hypervisor. > Feature specification is at > https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/Deploy+instance+from+VM+snapshot -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
