smakovits Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 I assume with unraid the disks are thick provisioned as opposed to thin? Is this the only option for disk format/creation within unraid/KVM? Quote Link to comment

Under advanced view when creating a VM you can choose between RAW and QCOW2. QCOW2 are thin provisioned images. Quote Link to comment
smakovits Posted January 25, 2016 Author Share Posted January 25, 2016 That's perfect, thanks And that's automatic right? Quote Link to comment
JonathanM Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 The RAW images that were created on my XFS cache drive were sparse, so that's almost like thin provisioning. I don't remember changing anything to make that happen. Quote Link to comment
