Ah I see, sorry I wasn't aware of that. Is there a particular reason
in using file based VMs ?

Simply for easy of management :)

since generally speaking the performance on
raw devices is much better and in DRBD9 you can leverage of thin lvm
or zfs based snapshots.

I use lvm-based block device on critical installation, actually. However, backing up block devices is an hassle compared to regular files: you basically need to use ddrescue or, even worse, plain dd. Especially with the latter, you need to be *extremely* careful, as its "alias name" (data-destroyer) is here for a reason.

Thanks.
