Hi,

You can set cache if you are using the CLI, just create a disk
attachment file

with

DISK = [ IMAGE_ID = #{image_id}, TARGET = #{target}, CACHE=default ]

or

DISK = [ IMAGE_ID = #{image_id}, DEV_PREFIX = #{bus}, CACHE=default ]

OK, it works. But sunstone/self service portals are missing fields for that to work.

and then use it for onevm attachdisk. I agree, that it should probably
honor the default in  vmm_exec_kvm.conf.

I'm also for it to honor TEMPLATE/CACHE parameter from image.
The same would be good for VM templates, so I don't need to write CACHE parameter into VM template.

Some images are volatiles, other could contain critical data.

I've filled an issue to improve this...

    Hi,

    I'm testing disks hotplug for kvm VMs and I found that there are no
    way to setup cache mode for such disks. I tried to put CACHE="none"
    to image template, but it is not used in attach_disk (tested with
    "rm -f "$ATTACH_FILE"" commented out).

    We have CACHE="none" default in vmm_exec_kvm.conf, because for
    virtio disks it is fast. CACHE=default is about one order slower.
