Hi, Ok, I get it. But if I work with 2 strict Compute offerings each using a strict Disk offering, it looks like I am unable to migrate a shared to local or vice versa via UI. - Scale VM (Instances) does not show the other offering - Migrate Volume (Volumes) does not show the other primary storage - Change disk offering (Volumes) does not show the other Disk offering even when Auto migrate is enabled
The following steps needed to be done to achieve my goal: - volume needs to be migrate from shared to local storage (or vice versa) - disk offering needs to be changed - compute offering needs to be changed Did I missed something? In a perfect world this should be able to do even when the VM is running and via UI. I will test if I can achieve it via api and if so I will open an issue in github for and enhancement. -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Hean Seng <heans...@gmail.com> Gesendet: Donnerstag, 30.

In the current control , there is no variable to restrict user from doing that, and only admin can do. It all depend on the offering you created. . Probably you can try is restrict it at offering, and when you need to change, first change the Vm to another offering first, then only migrate the volumn.
