Restore: VM with proper name should proper when finished #48

Open v6ak opened 7 years ago

v6ak commented 7 years ago

Currently, VM is created with final name and then restore is performed. If restore fails, some partially restored VM with good name exists.

When a VM with a correct name appears, it should have correct content.

Proposed behavior:

  1. Create VM with temporary name
  2. Disable backups for the VM
  3. Restore
  4. Enable backups for the VM
  5. Rename the temporary VM
