when moving a block-based preallocated disk with incremental backup enabled (format: COW, type: PREALLOCATED) to another block-based SD it is moved as (format: COW, type: SPARSE)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
vdsm-4.50.3.7-1.el8ev.x86_64

How reproducible:
every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. move block-based preallocated disk with incremental backup enabled (format: COW, type: PREALLOCATED) to another block-based SD

Actual results:
image is - format: COW, type: SPARSE

Expected results:
the image will be - format: COW, type: PREALLOCATED

Benny, you said it sounds familiar, can you please take a quick look?

This bug has low overall severity and is not going to be further verified by QE.

Comment 8 Arik 2023-07-23 06:20:38 UTC

verification steps:
1. create a VM with a disk that is set with incremental-backup enabled a on storage domain
2. start the VM (not mandatory I think but that's part of the reported issue)
3. verify the disk configuration is qcow+preallocated with (on the host that the VM runs on): vdsm-tool dump-volume-chains <storage domain id> | grep -A3 <image id>
4. move the disk to another block storage domain
5. when the disk movement completes, verify the disk configuration remains qcow+preallocated with the aforementioned command in step 3 (that points to the new storage domain)

Comment 11 Casper (RHV QE bot) 2023-08-03 11:00:24 UTC

This bug has low overall severity and passed an automated regression suite, and is not going to be further verified by QE.

changing NEXTRELEASE to CURRENTRELEASE since with a single version (ovirt-4.5.3-async), it's not clear whether or not the fix was released (in this case it was released on Sep 19th)
