We're using Trident to provision PVCs for virtual machine backing to an on-prem Ontap cluster. It's using an iSCSI backend with the ontap-san driver. And we're using SVM-DR to keep a backup of all LUNs on a separate cluster.
We have several golden VM templates, and then we use PVC clones to provision new VMs. When cloning, I've noticed that if the size is less than 100GB then the clone will be created as a standard Flexvol. But if the size is 100GB or higher, then it gets created as a Flexclone. Is it possible to force all new clones to be created as a Flexvol rather than a Flexclone?
I've enabled the splitOnClone: "true" option, but since I'm using SVM-DR the clone isn't able to split. So I'm hoping there's a way I can get all PVCs to be created as Flexvols, even if that means provisioning time goes up.
