Hi,
it is some time I don't go into it, because I anyway tend to use
preallocated disks on block storage, but at 4.0, 4.1 time, when using thin
dsks, the parameters and their tested values were these in vdsm.conf
section [irs] or in some other file such as
/etc/vdsm/vdsm.conf.d/50_thin_block_extension_rules.conf

[irs]

# Together with volume_utilization_chunk_mb, set the minimal free
# space before a thin provisioned block volume is extended. Use lower
# values to extend earlier.
volume_utilization_percent = 20

# Size of extension chunk in megabytes, and together with
# volume_utilization_percent, set the free space limit. Use higher
# values to extend in bigger chunks.
volume_utilization_chunk_mb = 8192

Crosscheck in 4.2/4.3. Also, I remember I had problems in RHV 4.2 and RHVH
hosts trying to customize vdsm.conf, but I didn't deal much with it because
I decided then to use preallocated and not use anymore those parameters.

HIH investigating more,
Gianluca
