the plugins for file based storages
* BTRFS
* CIFS
* Dir
* Glusterfs
* NFS
now allow the option 'preallocation'.
'preallocation' can have four values:
* default
* off
* metadata
* falloc
* full
see man pages for `qemu-img` for what these mean exactly. [0]
the defualt value was chosen to be
* qcow2: metadata (as previously)
* raw: off (I was unable to find any documentation on this, so
could only test this and found, that 'off' was the most
fitting.)
when using 'metadata' as preallocation mode, for raw images 'off'
is used.
