    <p>Hi Krutika,</p>
    <p>Thanks for the info. <br>
    </p>
    <p>After a long time the preallocated disk has been created
      properly. It was a 1TB disk on a hdd pool so a bit of delay was
      expected. <br>
    </p>
    <p>But it took a bit longer then expected. The disk had no other
      virtual disks on it. Is there something I can tweak or check for
      this?</p>
    <p>Regards, Jorick<br>

            <p>Hi,</p>
            <p>I have the similar issues with ovirt 4.2 on a
              glusterfs-3.8.15 cluster. This was a new volume and I
              created first a thin provisioned disk, then I tried to
              create a preallocated disk but it hangs after 4MB. The
              only issue I can find in the logs sofar are the [File
