Description Jeremy 2017-09-15 20:41:13 UTC 
Description of problem: Customers have the need to attach ISO to an instance that is already running. Currently there seems to only be possible to attach volume as type cdrom at boot time: https://access.redhat.com/solutions/1225473

Having this feature would allow customers to attach volumes containing iso image as type cdrom so they can install apps on windows vm and such via the iso.
Comment 1 Lee Yarwood 2017-09-15 21:35:01 UTC 
So stable device rescue is what we really need here, the current behaviour of using the disk_bus of the original image or default in nova.conf is enough in the general volume-attach use-case.
