Operational mode.

Use this command to move an image to a new path. All the image paths are relative to the /var/lib/libvirt/images folder.

An image is not moved if the original path is referenced by a guest configuration.

Any existing image at the new path is overwritten.

The following example shows how to move an image to a new path.

vyatta@vyatta:~$ show virtualization images 
an-image.qcow2

vyatta@vyatta:~$ move virtualization image an-image.qcow2 to moved-image.qcow2

vyatta@vyatta:~$ show virtualization images
moved-image.qcow2
