Hi, For OpenNebula, VMs are never completely deleted. You can still issue a 'onevm show', and see al the VMs in DONE state. I think those directories are created when the VMs are cached again, maybe because the accounting or statistics module.
If that's becoming an important issue for you, and you don't mind breaking accounting and statistics, you can delete all VMs in DONE state from the DB. Just make sure that you stop OpenNebula before that. This has been requested before [1], so we will consider in the future to add some configuration option to completely remove VMs that reach the DONE state Regards.
