Hi Thanks for this have reverted it back to .85, does this mean that this value pool.storage.capacity.disablethreshold is factoring in the overprovisioning value?
Is there a way to allow pool.storage.allocated.capacity.disablethreshold utilise the overprovisining factor and stop blocking VM creation when we reach the 85% threshold Thanks Noel On 24 October 2013 01:32, Nitin Mehta <nitin.me...@citrix.com> wrote: > Advise you to not keep pool.storage.capacity.disablethreshold as 1 (100%). > This captures the actual usage of the storage and you do not want it to > reach 100% especially possible when you have over provisioned. > > On 23/10/13 1:14 PM, "Noel King" <noelk...@gmail.com> wrote: > > >Hi > > > >I am seeing an issue here with Cloudstack and VMWare storage and hope you > >can help.
