GitHub user bernardodemarco added a comment to the discussion: How to decouple 
an instance from a template?

Exactly, the running VMs will not be affected. The template will be kept in 
primary storage until the last VM that uses it is expunged.

No, this will not cause any issues. The only downside is that the UI will 
display a link to the template and, when accessing it, since the template is 
removed, the user will be redirected to a 404 page.

As for new templates with the same name, this will not be an issue either. ACS 
currently supports different templates with the same name. The are 
identified/differentiated by their internal IDs and UUIDs.
