Maybe we can introduce a special permission called Datastore.ReplaceDisk That would allow the user to: - allocate and upload a temporary disk with same size as a existing one - automatically replace the VM disk when upload completes If the user has Datastore.AllocateSpace, we can use the unusedX volume mechanism (no need to auto-replace an existing disk) _______________________________________________ pve-devel mailing list pve-devel@pve.proxmox.com http://pve.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pve-devel
