Hello, in docs about ovirt_disk module for Ansible there is also notice about managing floating disks. But I don't find a way to copy an existing floating disk into a new one as I do in web admin gui selecting Storage --> disks, selecting the disk and choosing "copy" button. I can also temporarily attach this disk to a VM, but then it seems to me there is no option to copy this disk too even if attached to a VM... Is there anything doable in Ansible to reach this target? I don't know if this below is the corresponding for REST API: https://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/storage/copy-di...

I have sort of master disk for a sw install that I keep as a floating disk. When needed I copy from UI (and this workflow is clear) this floating disk and then assign the new disk to the target vm where I'm going to setup the sw. The floating disk is retained for future installs. I don't find an equivalent with ovirt_disk or another ovirt related Ansible module. Thanks, Gianluca >

But is it supported on block based storage such as iSCSI or FC? I see this in your [1] above " # We don't support move&copy for non file based storages: if disk.storage_type != otypes.DiskStorageType.IMAGE: return changed "

Also it is not clear in my opinion the action connected to the different "state" possibilities: present/absent/attached/detached In web admin gui I can have a disk active on a VM and I can: - deactivate the disk I see red down arrow for the disk that remains associated with the VM - remove the disk a) remove permanently removes the disk from storage b) if I don't select "remove permanently" the disk goes into the floating disks list How do they map with Ansible module state options?
