New added virtual disk on multi-write mode with thick eager-zero

Hi

In my 6.5 environment, I was successfully provisioned primary vm with shared virtual disks on multi-write mode with thick eager-zero

The configuration is something like below:

vm1 Hard disk 1 0:0

vm1 Hard disk 4 2:0

vm1 Hard disk 5 2:1

vm1 Hard disk 6 2:2

vm1 Hard disk 7 2:3

vm1 Hard disk 8 2:4

The problem or observation is that, when I added up those shared virtual disk to the secondary cluster vm, the disk type was set to lazy-zero as default and cannot be change.

Is it a normal behavior or did I miss some settings?

You are experiencing this in the second node or the first one? I mean, if you view the config for the first node, is it eager thick?

I know that if you expand a disk it will be converted on lazy disk, as new zeros can be provisioned while the disk is being utilized but, I never had something like that, could be normal behavior.
