Bootable Volumes
Shared Storage Volumes (SSVs) can be created with operating system (OS) images installed on them by selecting an image during the volume creation process in Hyperstack. These volumes with images installed are known as Bootable Volumes. A bootable volume contains all the necessary files, configurations, and settings required to run the operating system for a virtual machine. After creating a volume with an OS installed, it can be used to create and deploy virtual machines. If a virtual machine is created from a bootable volume, it can access the data saved on the volume and use its operating system. It's important to note that a bootable volume can only be attached to a single virtual machine at a time due to the lack of support for parallel access to a single disk by most operating systems and file systems.
