 +===== Another Person's Notes =====
 +
 +As I understand, you jsut want to add your storage from your standalone host to the pool and then copy the VMs from that storage to the storage of the pool, right?
 +
 +If so you have to do the following steps:
 +
 +  - Backup your metadata on the standalone host to the attached storage
 +  - Detach/forget the storage on your standalone host
 +  - Reconfigure your storage that the pool can access it
 +  - Introduce your storage to the pool
 +  - Restore your metadata in the pool
 +  - Copy VMs to the other SR
 +
 +If you are going for the export/import way and you don't want to reconfigure the network settings, you have to use the ''preserve=true'' parameter during import. Then all VMs should come up with the same MAC address.
