Cloudinit drive pool

[uk_user]

I'd like to keep cloudinit drives separate from vm primary drives so created a new ceph pool called "ceph-cloudinit". I have a template (based on centos7) which has the cloud init drive created in this pool as per the attached screenshot.

When I clone this VM (full clone) to create a new VM, the cloudinit drive is cloned/created to our primary pool, called "ceph-vm" as shown in the second screenshot.

Is there a setting somewhere for me to specify that cloned templates should have the cloudinit drive cloned to the same pool as in the template?

If you do not select any target storage and keep that as "like source" that will happen, as long as those storage is available on the target node - which ceph highly probably always is.

If you specify a target storage PVE will clone all disks to that one, independent if they were on different disks or not.
In that case PVE is a bit lacking as no "storage to storage mapping" for multiple disks can be specified yet.
