When using ThinLVM a VM initially allocates the same amount of data as the

Atila - just to follow up on Giannis discard notes, depending on what OS
and filesystems you use inside of your VMs, you may need to run fstrim,
mount with different options, or run specific commands (ie zpool trim for
zfs) to get it all working correctly.

Thin provisioning is set on the storage, it is a checkbox and of course it
