Change Default Behaviour
In the admin interface, if i create a server template and make a VM out of it i get a Clone/Independent VM. If i use a dekstop template a get a Thin/Dependent In the VM portal i only get Thin/Dependent. How can i change this so that it's always Clone/Dependent for certain templates?

Ok, yes that would make sense. Any ideas where i can look to change this manually as a temp work around?

When you use template with disk on a storage that doesn't support sparsify, then it will not create thin disk on it. But I'm not sure how exactly that works. What ovirt version you have? I've found some BZ with problem creating raw disks from template, that should be fixed in 4.3. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1471138 -- Lucie Leistnerova Quality Engineer, QE Cloud, RHVM Red Hat EMEA IRC: lleistne @ #rhev-qe

People always confuse two things - that bug talks about how the new disk will be written - which format and if it’s sparse or not depends on the format capabilities (comment 13), but the setting you see when creating a VM is about something else - you either keep a link to the original template disk or you make a completely separate clone. It’s limited by the format too, so e.g. for RAW the former option is not really possible
