Hi Gianluca,<br>
<br>
I tried to clone the VM but it does not help. It is still thin
allocation.<br>
<br>
Best regards<br>

List,<br>
<br>
I'm trying to change the disk allocation policy of a VM
disk and I'm not able to perform this task via the oVirt
front-end.<br>
<br>
Is someone able to tell me how I can do that?<br>
<br>
Best regards and thank you<br>

<div>I've done it in the past by creating a snapshot of a VM
and then cloning the snapshot and selecting preallocated
for the cloned disks (if you have to do it without
powering off the source VM)</div>
<div>Or directly creating a clone of the VM if it is powered
off, I think it creates a full preallocated copy and btw
you have no way to tell to clone as thin if I remember
correctly</div>
