Alena Prokharchyk commented on CLOUDSTACK-4894:
-----------------------------------------------

Why do we need a new API, Wei if we can achieve that by extending the existing 
one with the parameter? 

> destroyVm API: add support to force expunge the vm immediately

> When destroyVM API is called, the vm gets destroyed only in the DB. The 
> actual expunge is being taken care later on by expunge thread (configured 
> using expunge.interval and expunge.delay params). As we keep on getting the 
> requests on adding a support for forceful expunge - when vm is expunged 
> immediately after the call is made - it would make sense to introduce some 
> flag to destroyVm command, controlling the behavior.
> So destroyVm will get new parameter - expunge (boolean, false by default). 
> When true is passed as a value, the vm will be expunged right away.
