The image formats depends upon the Hypervisor you used. If it is XenServer/XCP then the image format is VHD and for KVM it is .img . It is nothing to do with Cloudstack. As XenServer/XCP keeping the virtual harddisks in .VHD format in attached NFS repository. Also in CloudStack for primary and secondary storage NFS storage has been used.You can import an existing .vhd file to CloudStack. Normally .VHD files are bigger than the actual Operting System (OS) space. As VHD is the complete harddisk that includes both OS spcae + empty space.
