Hi,

it would be nice to be able to set the Async IO option (aio=) for cloud-init drives in the GUI.

We are running a shared storage on a SAN LUN with OCFS2 and we know this is an unsupported setup.

Since kernel 6.5 we need the aio=threads parameter for virtual disks. For normal vHDDs this can be done via the GUI, but not for cloud-init drives.
We can add the parameter manually in the config file for the VM but this is kind of tedious.
