Would you instantiate a non-persistant OS image and have a persistent datablock for the data? (I think that is the classical way) What about the configuration files? Let's say I would have MySQL data on the datablock but then my MySQL configuration would be stored on the non-persistant image which could be a problem if I undeploy my VM by error. <br><br>Regards,<br>M.L.<br> <br><div id="yiv3667094225"><div><div style="color:#000;background-color:#fff;font-family:HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande,

I installed a VM manually on a datablock image using the Fedora 20 DVD as a cdrom image. For that I had to define these two images in my VM template. Now that I have installed Fedora I would like to permanently remove the cdrom image from my VM storage. I tried from Sunstone to detach it while running the VM but this fails as it is on the IDE bus (hdb). <br clear="none">

So quite a trivial question but how do I remove this cdrom as storage from my VM? The same question applies to the context cdrom which is always present.</div><div class="yiv3667094225yui_3_13_0_ym1_1_1389772026800_16772" style="font-style:normal;font-size:16px;background-color:transparent;font-family:HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif;">
