Public bug reported: Description =========== As per the documentation "Sparse disks get imported from the OpenStack Image service into ESX as thin provisioned disks"
http://docs.openstack.org/kilo/config-reference/content/vmware.html But its being set as lazy zeroedthick disk. Steps to reproduce ================== 1) Upload a sparse disk and set the the vmware_disktype="sparse". 2) Create an instance 3) Edit the VM from vsphere client, disk provisioning type will be displayed as "Thick provision lazy zeroed" Expected result =============== Disk provisioning can be Thin provision/ sparse provision. Actual result ============= disk provisioning type is set as "Thick provision lazy zeroed" Environment =========== 1. Devstack stable/mitaka 2. Which hypervisor did you use? VMWare 3. What's the version of that? 5.5 Logs & Configs ============== attaching the snapshot ** Affects: nova Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: vmware ** Attachment added: "instances settings" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1602740/+attachment/4700242/+files/Capture.PNG ** Summary changed: - Sparse disks get attached to the instance as lazy zeroed thick disks instead of thin provisioned disks + VMware: Sparse disks get attached to the instance as lazy zeroed thick disks instead of thin provisioned disks -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo!
