Anka Virtualization 3.3.8
We are very excited to announce Anka Virtualization 3.3.8. In this version, you’re going to find:
Import and Export for VMs
You can now export and import your VMs to an archive to assist with moving VMs between hosts.
- Only available for Enterprise or Enterprise Plus licenses.
- A VM Template tag will not be included in the export/import. However the active tag for a VM is the state we will export. Future versions will support this and allow registry users to utilize export/import to migrate VM templates without
anka pull
andanka push
. - Underlying layer/data sharing between the VMs does not happen. Exporting a VM is performing a unique copy like
anka clone -c
would do.
