Description
##### ISSUE TYPE
* Bug Report
##### COMPONENT NAME
~~~
Secondary Storage
~~~
##### CLOUDSTACK VERSION
~~~
CloudStack 4.18.1.0
~~~
##### CONFIGURATION
XCP-NG is used as hypervisor
Secondary storage connected via NFS
##### OS / ENVIRONMENT
##### SUMMARY
Hi!
I faced issue with ISO images.
Whe I mount ISO to multiple VMs, they stop starting in Cloudstack. And from the backend, I can see multiplying ISO SRs on every try to start VM. Some of them has ISO file inside, but most of them hasn't. Please look at screenshots attached.


My general question is can I safely remove (detach/foget/destroy) this empty SRs?
Even if I delete VM, ISO SRs still in the place.
Is there any way to fix issue with VM start?
Thank you in advance!

Research direction
No source files, tests, commands, or reproducible steps are provided. Start by reproducing the VM-start failure with CloudStack 4.18.1.0, XCP-NG, and NFS-backed secondary storage; done means VMs start when ISO images are mounted without creating persistent empty ISO SRs.
