Indeed, as it can return storage to the LVM thin pool for reuse, as virtual trimming is handled as releasing storage back to the pool. Templates: I manually update all my templates, so it's always: $ <OS-specific-update-command(s)> $ sudo fstrim -av $ sudo shutdown -h now AppVMs: Similar except I remind myself to dismount any large volumes mounted (those can take to run trim against): $ sudo fstrim -av $ sudo shutdown -h now B -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
