Use Screenshots if accurate.\r\n\r\nFor new features, show how the feature would be used.\r\n--\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003c!-- Paste example playbooks or commands between quotes below --\u003e\r\n~~~\r\nRegister a deploy-as-is template (enabling the Read VM settings from OVA ), start a VM with this template, then remove the template using 'Force delete' and stop/start the VM.\r\n\r\nNote: There is another regression bug in 4.17 - 4.18.1 that makes reproducing this one much harder:\r\nhttps://github.com/apache/cloudstack/issues/7998\r\n\r\nSo to reproduce it you'll need a 4.16 environment or 4.18 branch that includes the fix.\r\n~~~\r\n\r\n\u003c!-- You can also paste gist.github.com links for larger files --\u003e\r\n\r\n##### EXPECTED RESULTS\r\n\u003c!-- What did you expect to happen when running the steps above? --\u003e\r\n\r\n~~~\r\nThe VM starts normally.\r\n~~~\r\n\r\n##### ACTUAL RESULTS\r\n\u003c!-- What actually happened? --\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003c!-- Paste verbatim command output between quotes below --\u003e\r\n~~~\r\nThe VM cannot start.\r\n~~~\r\n","author":{"url":"https://github.com/vladimirpetrov","@type":"Person","name":"vladimirpetrov"},"datePublished":"2023-09-18T15:40:10.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":5},"url":"https://github.com/7970/cloudstack/issues/7970"}
