[jira] [Updated] (CLOUDSTACK-4197) Allow creating a VM without
virtual CD-ROM drive
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-4197?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

> Components: Hypervisor Controller

> Currently all VMs that CloudStack creates will include a virtual CD-ROM drive. In some cases, such as with virtual appliances (e.g. NetScaler VPX), a CD-ROM drive is not needed or even unsupported. It would be useful if CloudStack could deploy a VM without a CD-ROM drive to allow such cases.
> Perhaps such functionality could be added using new OS Types, for example:
> Other - No CD-ROM (32-bit)
> Other - No CD-ROM (64-bit)
> Other PV - No CD-ROM (32-bit)
> Other PV - No CD-ROM (64-bit)
> Or maybe it could be added on a per VM or per template basis with a new configuration parameter. This might be more flexible since some customers might want to use arbitrary OS types for VMs with no CD-ROM.
