Shared Image Gallery and Resources Left Over

Once I've imported the image into a shared image gallery, which resources to I have to keep? There are several resources that are leftover from the image creation process.

  1. the virtual machine
  2. the virtual machine OS disk
  3. the image resource

Before I go deleting things, I want to be sure. I don't think I need the virtual machine or the original OS disk. Do I still need to keep the image that I captured from that VM?

Thanks,
Joe
