I don’t think that’s what we are looking for.  With this process, if I have an 
X size virtual disk, I have to come up with X+2X more storage to go through 
this silly import process. With ESXi, I just right click, add to inventory and 
I’m off.

Right now, I’m looking at moving my AIO configuration to a new host.  I’ll have 
to create the new AIO host, create a new storage domain on the old disks, 
create new VMs that look like the old ones, create new virtual disks, then go 
rummage around the storage, figure out what’s what in these user unfriendly 
UUID names, then move the old images onto the new ones.

With ESXi, I just reinstall the hypervisor, create the new VM, then right 
click, add to inventory on the old disk image, and I’m done.

The concept of storage domains seems rather clumsy and limited to me.
