One Disk is initially a qcow2 disk, but is converted during the Make Template to RAW. The others are raw Disks

Hi, 

i have currently two issues with templates: 

1) I cannot create VMs from Templates with Pre-Allocated Disks. I have a VM with 2 Preallocated and one Thin Provisioned Disk. 
Whenever i create a new template from this Machine all Disks are changed to Thin Provisoned inside of the Template.

When you create a template you can create the type of te disk, maybe you chose cow?

During the VM create in the resource tab i can only choose between Thin and Clone,

If you created raw disk, you will have a raw disk after cloning the template.

since the disks are all changed to Thin Provisioned it is impossible to create Pre-Allocated Disks with the Template. 

Can the behavior of the "Make Template" somehow be changed? 

3) I use cloud-init with a couple of settings in the "Intital Run" for the installation of the machines. Whenever i create a new VM from template inside of the Admin GUI the "Use Cloud-Init/Sysprep" is enabled and prefilled. Thats fine. 
When i use the same template inside of the User GUI the "Use Cloud-Init/Sysprep" is disabled and all the Cloud-Init settings are empty. 

Should it work that way or is it a bug?

It sounds like a bug, adding Michal.
