Title:
  vmware: snapshot not passing image properties

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Tried on ice-house.

  Uploaded an vmdk image to glance passing the parameter
  vmware_disktype=thin. I know that it's still not implemented the
  automatic conversion from thick to thin, so after the upload I went in
  the ESX, accessed glance folder in the datastore, and converted the
  image manually to a thin disk (vmkfstools -i...).

  Then when I launch an instance the disk is thin, so the image is ok.

  But when I take a snapshot, the image created seems to ignore the
  previous properties, creating an image with
  vmware_disktype=preallocated, occupying a lot more of space in the
  data store.
