Unless it’s a very very ancient unsupported version of centos the virt-io drivers will be in the kernel package. Do a lsmod and look for virtio to check if it is loaded. Regarding the slower speed of the custom image: First check if they are really the same file format and one is not secretly a raw file: file centos.qcow2 I would expect the virt-sparsify to be indeed the way to go. Although I think that cinder will convert it to raw for you and you probably want that for ceph (IIRC it is a setting). It might be that the centos downloaded file is actually RAW so it does not need to convert that. You can also check the cinder server debug log / load or ceph load to see if something is bottlenecked during the upload to maybe get a hint to what the problem is. Cheers, Robert van Leeuwen
