Disk Clones

Quake AI concept: Clones

  • Direct disk-to-disk cloning (zonal-to-zonal or zonal-to-regional) without intermediate snapshot, synchronous and instantly usable (regional averages 3 min to full sync).
  • Must match source disk type; rate limits (1 every 30s, 1000 per lineage); clone size >= source.
  • Cross-project supported via full resource path; source VM cannot power on during clone.
  • API uses compute.disks.insert with sourceDisk field, differing from Cinder's clone volume API.
