virt-image-provisioning-pipeline

Status: IN

VM disk image provisioning in OpenShift Virtualization follows a defined pipeline: CDI requires scratch space equal to the destination volume during import, three cloning strategies (snapshot/csi-clone/host-assisted) offer different performance profiles, and boot source images are managed through a feature gate that controls automatic updates — creating a multi-strategy provisioning model.

Justifications

Three base virt beliefs combine into a VM disk provisioning pipeline model
