Hm... maybe I need to set any options, is there any way to force ovirt to mount with this
extension, or version 4.2
there is only 4.1 selection in "New Domain" menu.
Current mount options:
type nfs4
(rw,relatime,vers=4.1,rsize=65536,wsize=65536,namlen=255,soft,nosharecache,proto=tcp,port=0,timeo=600,retrans=6,sec=sys,local_lock=none)
it should work only if forced option vers=4.2 ?
I thought it's implemented as feature to older version, not 4.2, there is few info
about this.
Looks like ovirt engine does not allow nfs version 4.2.
We have this RFE:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1406398
So practically, both sparsify and pass discard with NFS are useless
in the current version.
I think this should be fix for next 4.1 build.
