Description

We've been asked to provide a way to configure the disk provisioning type (thick vs thin provisioning) in vSphere when creating Machines.

Please take a look at what that actually means in vSphere and see if we can implement it.

Research direction

Start by researching how vSphere represents thick and thin disk provisioning, then inspect the repository's VM creation path to determine where configuration belongs. Define what configuration is needed and verify that creating a Machine can select the requested provisioning type.
