3 - Another question, when you convert a VM to template I see that it is
created with preallocated disk even if the original VM had thinly
provisioned disk. Is there no way to make the template with the same
type of disk (thinly provisioned)??
on NFS - it doesn't matter.
on block storage - i don't remember why. maybe federico remembers.
It was for performance reasons since on block it would result in a qcow2
image. We wanted the access to the template to be as fast as possible.
The same question was brought up few months ago when we discussed importing
images from glance as templates. Anyway in that case we decided (for simplicity)
to allow the import as template also for qcow2 images.
Ok, thank you both for the clarification
Federico
