> Back in 4.5, support was added in CLOUDSTACK-6284 for detaching root volumes. The original support was meant to work with Xen, VMware and KVM.
> After chatting with fuflo in the Cloudstack irc channel, it was pointed out that a constraint was not correctly modified in VolumeApiServiceImpl.java to allow the detach to occur when vm.getHypervisorType() == HypervisorType.KVM.
> This is a very useful feature, as it allows us to simulate a snapshot revert with Ceph by using createVolume sourced from a snapshot, then detaching and reattaching the root volume (new root volume needs to be attached as device=0).
> I'm going to propose a PR for this shortly
