In practice, it works.

I had to do this in order to get back a template that i want to use with a 
xencenter's managed xenserver pool.

 For XenServer it will be VHD files.  Make Template from VM, download 
 it, import it and re-create VM from template. Should work theoretically.

 Greetings all!

 We currently have a XenServer 6.1 pool being managed by a CloudStack 
 4.1.1 deployment. We have a client that would like to export a number 
 of VMs so they can import them into their own XenServer pool. What 
 would be the best way to accomplish this? I know that I can download 
 individual volumes. Can CloudStack export VMs as OVFs or similar? The 
 only reference to exporting I can find in the documentation is for 
 templates. The section on exporting templates does not state what format they 
 can be exported in.

 Thanks in advance,


 Billy Ramsay
