I'm trying to improve the performance of CopyCommand when copying a TemplateObjectTO to a TemplateObjectTO. On Hyper-V this happens when a template is downloaded from S3 to the hypervisor's primary data store.
I notice that the checksum on a TemplateObjectTO cannot be used to verify that an uncompressed image already exists on the destination. E.g. for a System VM template, the checksum corresponds to the .bz2 file, and not the .vhd Should I store only the compressed image, and take a performance hit during uncompression? Or can I update the checksum for the TemplateObjectTO? Any suggestions welcome, DL
