Title.

I was -desperately- trying to change ISOs on a Windows 10 running VM, and ended up adding a new DVD device in Proxmox GUI while VM was running. Result: newly added device was added *in red*. Out of fear I immediately clicked the "Revert" button.

After a while I realized I only needed to change ISO in currently added DVD drive...

What I did, is it seriously bad? Could VM or even Proxmox whole host have suffered some damage?
