      I am moving some VMs to different storage, into a large NFS partition. My hosts are grouped into 2 pools, which have different purposes, so I run different VMs in each pool.
      I am copying the VM, then deleting the original, as there is a problem with the existing storage. Every copy I make from pool1 is ending up in pool2. That is surprising since I never added the destination storage to pool2, but XOA can see it all and just makes it happen.
      Is there a way I can make XOA copy into the original pool?

        If you copy on the storage connected on pool2, it's normal to have the VM in pool2. So I'm not sure about the issue here. Maybe I didn't get the whole thing.

          Olivier - the destination storage was attached to the wrong pool. It was behaving correctly, but not doing what I wanted.
