      The XCP-ng docs do not seem to address non-persistent disk modes. Is there a recipe for reverting a virtual machine disk to a set state or snapshot on restart?

        @elsif2 I'm not too sure but I think it's the on-boot parameter on the VDI, it can have two values: persist and reset.
        Maybe setting to reset would be enough.
        I have not tried to use it though.

        You can set it like this:

        xe vdi-param-set uuid=<VDI UUID> on-boot=reset

        The VM of which the VDI is connected to needs to be offline.
