+<1> Setting this option to `false` enables preallocation of disks. The default is `true`. Setting `sparse` to `true` with `format` set to `raw` is not available for block storage domains. The `raw` format writes the entire virtual disk to the underlying physical disk.
+<2> Can be set to `cow` or `raw`. The default is `cow`. The `cow` format is optimized for virtual machines.

+[NOTE]
+====
+Preallocating disks on file storage domains writes zeroes to the file. This might not actually preallocate disks depending on the underlying storage.
