Hi,

seems not to work with FC Storage,

 

I Zero filled the Disk with dd, removed the file and did a fstrim which told me 
it trimmed the right amount of space,

But the disk Image stays full size.

 

Thx 

Christian

Hi,

is there a way to „shrink“ a thin disk image to reclaim deleted space like 
using virt-sparsify?

 

Yes, if the underlying file system supports it (NFS, for example, might need to 
be 4.2 and above).

 

Or can it be done by making a snapshot and clone the VM to a new one?

 

Another suggestion: use the VDSM hooks for discard ('diskunmap') and run 
'fstrim' from within the guest. 

Y.

 

 

Thanks a lot

Christian
