 From user POV I think that option 2 is the only one that make sense.
We try to do as much as we can,
and on each "problematic" case, we make him aware and let him decide.


Yep, +1.


Trying to get to a conclusion here,
3 different people said on this thread that they think that from the
user perspective leaving the shared devices plugged is what they think
is the best behavior to the user. (Omer, Kolesnik, Yair)

On the other hand we have 2 people who think that protecting the user is
more important than leaving the VM configuration as it was in the
original VM (Miki, Ayal).

Ayal/Miki can you please specify what are we protecting the user from?


I think that because we are not snapshotting the shared disk and the
direct LUN they should not be part of the VM configuration (in the
snapshot) at all. we can not promise the user that the disk will be
there and if it is there we can not guarantee it is in the same state as
it was when we took the snapshot.


Another issue,

I can not see a reason to limit this feature to creating a VM from
snapshot and not a template? Almost no extra work is needed for
supporting templates as well.

I assume you meant, creating a VM from another VM (if it is down)?
It should be supported.
