Hello,
Is there any way to reduce the size of an iSCSI Storage Domain? I can’t seem to figure
this myself. It’s probably unsupported, and the path would be create a new iSCSI Storage
Domain with the reduced size and move the virtual disks to there and them delete the old
one.
But I would like to confirm if this is the only way to do this…
In the past I had a requirement, so I’ve created the VM Domains with 10TB, now it’s just
too much, and I need to use the space on the storage for other activities.
Thanks all and happy new year.
Not sure. I mean ideally there might be a way to shrink the LUN, but how you'd
have to tell oVirt...unknown (packing, moving blocks, etc.).
With that said, I often have to tell my managers (over and over and over again)
that it requires space to reorganize and possibly even reduce space.
So, you know what "works" in adding, moving and removing. Might seem clunky,
but it's a proven pattern.
