Hi Proxmox Dev's!

I am developing plugin for the data storage system and want to avoid/minimize copying data on the proxmox side.

And it looks like Im missing something in understanding or copy/clone features. So can you please help me?


I was looking on cloning of virtual machines and volumes in proxmox and it seems like it is done through plain copy on the side of proxmox server. At least that is what happens when I press clone button in UI interface.

Im talking about: /usr/share/perl5/PVE/Storage system.

I do not think that this is the most optimal behavior. And I want to know how to make proxmox delegate data copying to the storage system.

In other words I want to make proxmox call for "clone_image" method instead of "volume_import and volume_export" when volumes being cloned/copied to the very same data storage.


Is it possible to do so with configuration and plugin code alone? Or it require modification in proxmox code itself?


Thanks for your attention,

Andrei
