Hello,
maybe this is a very noobish question, but if I use OVMF/UEFI for my windows servers, it's good to have the EFI disk (not required, but good, so one could persist changes to uefi settings, if I understand correctly).
If I don't use the EFI disk, eg. delete it, I will get the efivars message when migrating, powering up etc, but I'll be able to clone the VM.
If I use the EFI disk, I'll get no warnings, but will not be able to clone the VM:
So... how do I get both, UEFI Boot + EFI-Disk and cloning-ability (while VM is powered up)?
Btw. using Ceph as storage.
Thanks

Code:
create full clone of drive efidisk0 (vm-disks:vm-4102-disk-2)
drive mirror is starting for drive-efidisk0
drive-efidisk0: Cancelling block job
drive-efidisk0: Done.
Removing image: 100% complete...done.
TASK ERROR: clone failed: block job (mirror) error: drive-efidisk0: Source and target image have different sizes (io-status: ok)Btw. using Ceph as storage.
Thanks
