["ASF GitHub Bot (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-8313?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16284112#comment-16284112 ] 

ASF GitHub Bot commented on CLOUDSTACK-8313:
--------------------------------------------

wido opened a new pull request #2356: CLOUDSTACK-8313: Support overprovisioning for local storage
URL: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/2356
 
 
   This used to work in earlier version but was broken during a earlier
   refactor.
   
   This commit restores the functionality, but is also adds a boolean
   per storage pool type if it supports overprovisioning.
   
   This removes the nasty if which hard codes it.
   
   UnitTests are also added to this commit to verify this functionality
   remains stable in future releases.

> Currently we don't allow local storage to be overprovisioned.
> On KVM we use QCOW2 which is sparsely allocated and also uses clones for deploying from templates.
> This makes it possible to overprovision local storage as well, but currently StorageManagerImpl does not apply local storage over provisioning.
