According to ''xe help snapshot-clone'', this is the command used to create a new template. Executing the command with the UUID of an existing VM and a new-name-label parameter creates a new VM -- not a template or even a snapshot. I can convert this VM to a template by using ''xe vm-param-set'' with a ''uuid='' selector and ''is-a-template=true'', but I''m not sure this is the correct behavior, either. Frmm reading the help descriptios, this may be an unintended feature since I was able to snapshot-clone a VM without executing ''xe vm-snapshot'' first to create a snapshot. At this point I have no snaphots listed in ''xe snapshot-list'' and my snapshot-ted VM is a template in ''xe template-list''. -- John D.
