I think what Kir was getting at was set the diskinodes equal to 65536 x GiB before converting. So for 40GiB, set diskinodes to 2621440

Thanks, now I understand why this occurred, but what is the easiest way
to convert a lot of different CTs to ploop? As I remember there is no
way to set up unlimited diskinodes or disable them (in case I want to
use CT size when converting to ploop and don't want to think about
inodes at all).

Previously, we didn't support setting diskinodes for ploop, but later we
found
a way to implement it (NOTE: for vzctl create and vzctl convert only).
The trick we use it we create a file system big enough to accomodate the
requested number of inodes, and then use ploop resize (in this case
downsize)
to bring it down to requested amount.

In this case, 1G inodes requirements leads to creation of 16TB filesystem
(remember, 1 inode per 16K). Unfortunately, such huge FS can't be downsized
to as low as 40G, the minimum seems to be around 240G (values printed in
the error message are in sectors which are 512 bytes each).

Solution: please be reasonable when requesting diskinodes for ploop.
