[PVE-User] about restore to the exist vm, deleted the mounted disk(data disks).

[lyt_yudi]

hi,Dietmar

Just the title,When i restore a virtual machine from the vm template(only have a system disk), I don't want to delete the mounted disk.

such as this vm:
# cat /etc/pve/qemu-server/100.conf 
bootdisk: virtio0
cores: 4
cpuunits: 1000
ide0: none,media=cdrom
localtime: 1
memory: 4096
name: test
net0: virtio=1A:3D:E8:A5:B7:C1,bridge=vmbr3
onboot: 1
ostype: l26
sockets: 1
virtio0: local:101/vm-100-disk-1.raw
virtio1: local:101/vm-100-disk-2.raw,backup=no

vm-100-disk-1.raw is the vm(test) system disk,
vm-100-disk-2.raw is the data disk

when i restored to this the vm(test) from the vm template(only a system disk), the data disk(vm-100-disk-2.raw) is being deleted.
God, it's so very sad! :(

I tryed changed "virtio1" to "unused1",like:
unused1: local:101/vm-100-disk-2.raw,backup=no
but restored,the data disk(vm-100-disk-2.raw) is still being removed.

So,I suggest add options for the mounted disk,like this :)
virtio1: local:101/vm-100-disk-2.raw,backup=no,delete=no
or
unused1: local:101/vm-100-disk-2.raw,backup=no,delete=no

But,only add this options,maybe can't solve this problem,Perhaps restore function needs to be adjusted,and so so.
