   Additionally,
   
   Per per dev mailing list discussion with Wido. This following code controls the feature set.
   
   https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/blob/master/plugins/hypervisors/kvm/src/main/java/com/cloud/hypervisor/kvm/storage/LibvirtStorageAdaptor.java#L957
   
   private int rbdFeatures = (1 << 0); /* Feature 1<<0 means layering in RBD format 2 */
   > 
   rbd.clone(template.getName(), rbdTemplateSnapName, io, disk.getName(), 
   rbdFeatures, rbdOrder);
   
   
   I would suggest that we create a global setting that controls the feature flags.
   
   1. Default -1 to not specify any flags to rbd.clone. This should choose the defaults for the current version of Ceph.
   2. Specify a number the enable that feature code. ( https://ceph.com/geen-categorie/ceph-enable-the-object-map-feature/ )
