-VM Import and Export
---------------------
-
-Because the import and export of VMs can take some time to complete, an
-asynchronous HTTP interface to the import and export operations is
-provided. To perform an export using the XenServer API, construct
-an HTTP GET call providing a valid session ID, task ID and VM UUID, as
-shown in the following pseudo code:
-
-    task = Task.create()
-    result = HTTP.get(
-      server, 80, "/export?session_id=&task_id=&ref=");
-
-For the import operation, use an HTTP PUT call as demonstrated in the
-following pseudo code:
-
-    task = Task.create()
-    result = HTTP.put(
-      server, 80, "/import?session_id=&task_id=&ref=");
