Thank you, Gianluca! I was searching list archives but couldn't find
anything recent. All threads were from years ago. Glad am not the only one.
Yes, the problem is only from GUI and gluster only.
Thanks again.

It seems this is the third separate thread regarding the same problem
since 25/04 but I have not seen any answer (positive or negative) from one
of the oVirt developers / maintainers yet on the list...
(perhaps right now probably involved in Red Hat Summit.. )
Anyway I see that Strahil already opened a bug here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1704782
And there is useful information inside it, such as that the problem is
only on gluster and only if disk is created from webadmin GUI, while from
rest API is ok.
Also from 4.2 to 4.3 disk format (only on gluster) changed default from
thin provisioned to preallocated.
Hih,
Gianluca
