Lowering severity, as there is no data loss or 0day operation problem. WA: pre-create disks via AdminPortal/API / use pre-allocate. Raising priority as this is core functionality. Severity urgent: """ catastrophic issues which severely impact the mission-critical operations of an organization. This may mean that the operational servers, development systems or customer applications are down or not functioning and no procedural workaround exists. """ Unfortunately we didn't get to fix that for 4.4.7, postponing to 4.4.8 With https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-web-ui/pull/1508 VM Portal will be aware of the disk format/sparse values that are required for each type of storage domain. Thin and Preallocated disks will be mapped properly based on storage domain type (the important ones for this BZ being 'file' and 'block' types). Pavel, are you planning to verify this? Verified in ovirt-engine-4.4.9.3-0.3.el8ev.noarch ovirt-web-ui-1.7.2-1.el8ev.noarch Creating a thin provisioned disk on an ISCSI storage domain is successful. I also successfully created provision & preallocated disks on ISCSI and NFS storages to make sure there are no regressions. Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 4.4.5 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try to create thin disk on iSCSI storage from VM Portal Actual results: VM portal fails, because it tries to create raw/sparse Expected results: It works and creates qcow2/sparse like Admin Portal does.
