thank you very much. This is working fine but unfortunately not enough
for us. This way, we loose all the metadata of both the instance and the
template:
- security groups
- SSH keys
- attached volumes
- associated fixed and floating IP addresses.
The idea is to have the VMs in the new environment appear exactly as
they did in the old one, so simply moving a snapshot between the clouds
does not work :(
We'll probably end up writing a migration tool to achieve our goals and
I' pretty confident we'll be able to make it publicly available vo github.
Cheers,
Alex
