-------------------------------------------
Anthony,
Is this going to be fixed in 4.4?
> Allow creating a VM without virtual CD-ROM drive
> ------------------------------------------------

> Key: CLOUDSTACK-4197
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-4197
> Project: CloudStack
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Security Level: Public(Anyone can view this level - this is the
> default.)
> Components: Hypervisor Controller
> Affects Versions: 4.2.0
> Reporter: Kirk Kosinski
> Assignee: Anthony Xu
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: hypervisor, netscaler
> Fix For: 4.4.0
>
>
> 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.
