Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): # uname -a Linux dhcp-4-216 2.6.18-256.el5xen #1 SMP Thu Apr 7 20:09:34 EDT 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux xen-3.0.3-127.el5 libvirt-0.8.2-19.el5 virt-manager-0.6.1-14.el5 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. In dir pool, Click New Volume, input the vol-name, and Format as Cow, Max capacity as 10M, Allocation as 10M, Then finish 2. Check the newly created vol in the volumes list Actual results: The size display as 0M # qemu-img info /var/lib/libvirt/dir/a1.img image: /var/lib/libvirt/dir/a1.img file format: cow virtual size: 10M (10485760 bytes) disk size: 8.0K # du -s -B1 /var/lib/libvirt/dir/a1.img 8192 /var/lib/libvirt/dir/a1.img Expected results: The size should display as virtual size,which is 10M Additional info: For qcow2, qcow, raw type, they all display the virtual size as Size value, not the disk size. I think they should keep consistent.
