Re: [one-users] Couple of questions

I think any option that discards data as a default is not a good option. We
have several ways to discard VMs already. From a data safety and usability
standpoint its really hard to tell my users that their VM is gone forever.
Anyways thanks for your response, this is an amazing tool for private
clouds and blows away anything from VMware or Microsoft. Its a joy to use
everyday.

 Hi,

 1: Yes, onehost flush [1]
 2: If the images are persistent, the VM will be using a link to the source
 image (unless you are using the ssh transfer manager driver), and the
 redeployed VM will be up to date. Volatile and non-persistent disks are
 lost on resubmit, but this can be changed following this workaround [2]

 1. Is there an easy way to migrate all the VMs from a single host so the
 host can be put into maintenance mode?

 2. What happens if a host goes down hard and the OS volume cannot be
 recovered, can the vms be restarted on another host without redeploying
 from the base image?

 I haven't been keeping up with many of the newer features so apologies if
 i missed anything in the documentation
