Persistent VM template disks associated with a specific virtual datacenter. Hypervisors running persistent VMs will work directly from any persistent volumes. VM data stored on a persistent disk will be persisted on the external storage device. When you undeploy a VM, all changes made to the non-persistent disks will be lost. The next time you deploy the VM, the non-persistent template files will be freshly created, for example, standard template disks will be copied again from the appliance library to the target hypervisor. Note that it is not necessary for you to use a persistent disk as a system disk when you create a persistent VM.
