Ralph, to unlink using PUT I'd see as the following. (when PUT'ting you have to PUT the full representation of the resource).
Yes, that is definitely a solution. However you will only have to PUT the full representation of the resource as far as Links are concerned, if I understand things correctly. So in order to increase the memory of a compute resource the sequence would be: 1. GET /compute/xxx 2. Remember all Links with class='link' 3. Issue PUT /compute/xxx with occi.compute.memory = X and include all the links from step 2. In other words all Links must always by present in a PUT while only those attributes one wishes to change has to be present. Correct?
3. The OCCI implementation will now update the representation of that resource and carry out the provisioning system related activities, if necessary, of unlinking the resources. That deletion should remove the Compute instance to Storage instance link and any link that that Storage instance has to that Compute instance.
Yep, as long as the deleting of a resource removes all Links but no other resources I am happy. regards, Ralf
