VMDK behavior

Hello VMwarers, I have a question since I can't test it now I am asking you here looking for further explanation !

What if I have a storage policy that makes VMDK objects thick and my Disk option at VM lvl is thin what's going to happen?

Regards, İlyas

Hello İlyas

It will be Thick (full space reserved) - note it will also be Thick the opposite way around e.g. Thick set on vmdk primitive but OSR=0 in Storage Policy.
