GitHub user daviftorres added a comment to the discussion: How to decouple an instance from a template?
Dear @jl0815 , I don't see any future issues if CloudStack (ACS) keeps a reference showing which templates the running VMs came from. My past concern was simply that ACS defaults to linked volumes between instances and their templates. It uses a backing chain, meaning the VM disk relies on the original template. If this link is a concern for you, there are a few ways to fix it. You can manually flatten the volumes using the CLI, or you can perform a backup and restore (the restored VM will be completely independent). Hope this makes sense.
