We don't have a way to convert the format for the same disk.
We should have this in future version, since it is important for
incremental backup.
The most
In regular KVM thin disks can be made fully preallocated when you 'expand' them
to the predefined maximum size.
Usually I create a large file and then I delete it.
Something like this: 'dd if=/dev/zero of=/path/to/mounted/qcow2/disk/largefile
bs=4M status=progress ; rm -f
Hi Jorge,
Currently, there is no mechanism for doing this operation on the disk, but
there is workaround such as:
- Export the VM as OVA or to an export domain and import it back with the
needed allocation method.

If OVA export and import work for you, you get to chose between the two at
import.
