fixed vm storage (zfs, lvm)

[embvis]

Hi,
How I can allocate fixed space for VM storage (virtual disk) on ZFS, LVM, and how to change it on working machine?

Thanks in advance

what do you mean? non sparse disks (iow no thin provisioning?)
if yes, on the zfs storage you need to uncheck 'thin provisioning'
and lvm is always not thin provisioned (lvmthin is always thin provisioned an this cannot be changed)

I would like to create for example 200GB VM Hard Disk (on ZFS and LVM), and see the storage space will decrease the same value (eg 200GB).

Does Proxmox allow to blocking disk space for VM disk, during the creation of VM disk?

yes if you use a non thin provisioned storage (like LVM or zfs with 'thin provision' unchecked')
