SUMMARY

While a template is being uploaded/pushed to a specific zone due to network issues the image/template was not fully downloaded onto that zone. Currently the download percentage is showing as 31%, and even though the management server was bounced yet the download is not getting completed and am looking for a button to resume the download but there is none.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
step1: Navigate to images/templates and click "Register template from URL"
step2: Fill-up the form to download the template to the desired zone and click OK
step3: While the template is being downloaded - due to network outages or the apache server where qcow2 templates are kept suddenly goes down this will interrupt the template downloading to a specific zone(s).
step4: Once the network outage is resolved, the user should be in a position to "resume download" on images/Templates/zones tab which is NOT available at the moment, hence creating this enhancement request
EXPECTED RESULTS
As soon as the network issue is resolved, the user should be able to resume the template download by clicking "Resume Download" button. 
ACTUAL RESULTS
there is no button to resume the template download;

I think if you're uploading an ISO or template and something goes wrong with SSVM and mgmt server, it might loose track of it and you'll need to redo the upload (there's a timeout after which the upload will be marked as fail).

Thanks Rohit for your response! the alternate solution works, and we are good with it for now, but please consider having this feature to resume the download if it is possible in the upcoming releases.
