Does cephfs not support thin provisioning disk formats like vmware virtual machine disks? For example, the same vmware disk file in the rbd block is: root@backup-server:/mnt# du rbd/Win2003-002-198-bak/Win2003-002-198-bak_5-flat.vmdk -h 1.9G rbd/Win2003-002-198-bak/ win2003-002-198-bak_5-flat-.vmdk After copying to cephfs: root@backup-server:/mnt# du cephfs/Win2003-002-198-bak_5-flat.vmdk -h 30G cephfs/Win2003-002-198-bak_5-flat.vmdk The capacity was increased to a thick disk format. Is there any way to change this? Thank you!
