This is weird. Could you please use file-based storage (e.g. NFS) and post here 
whole exceptions from vdsm log (/var/log/vdsm/vdsm.log) and qemu log (/var/
log/libvirt/qemu/vm_name.log) from the host which runs the VM? Hopefully this 
will give us some hint what is the real issue there.
Thanks

 As I understand, the storage growth issue is only on iSCSI.
