When users want to update a path to a CDROM they tend to
|
|
construct a very minimal XML and feed the API with it. This is
|
|
not a good practice as it breaks the assumptions the API is built
|
|
on. Most notably, leaving an element out should be treated as a
|
|
request for removal of the corresponding setting. Just like
|
|
leaving out <bandwidth/> clears out any QoS previously set.
