Share VM between resource set members

[thiago-felipe-99]

Xen Orchestra already supports VM sharing between members in the Resource Set, this can be defined when creating a VM in the Advanced tab:

And in the Misc tab on the VM Advanced page:

Is there a plan to support this feature?

OBS:

• This property can be defined by xo-cli:

xo-cli vm.create name_label="MY VM" template=<template_id> resourceSet=<resource_set_id> share=true
# Or
xo-cli vm.set id=<vm_id> share=true

• There is already a comment in client/vm.go and I don't understand the problem of it not being supported.

Hi @thiago-felipe-99

The only way to share a VM is to use the gui or xo-cli.

What you can do with the terraform provider is to attach a resource set to a VM. This resource set can have the option "Share VMs by default" so that the new VM should be shared.
Unfortunately you cannot create a resource set with this option in terraform, but you can import it.

I don't know why there is this comment in the source code, nor why the "shared by default" option is not available in the terraform resource set. I will investigate.

If you feel comfortable, feel free to make a PR for this :)
