Hi @zap51 - can you please try through the API specifying the rootdisksize parameter as well?

Example in cloudmonkey:

> deploy virtualmachine networkids=<NETWORKID> templateid=<ISOID> serviceofferingid=<OFFERINGID> diskofferingid=<CUSTOM_OFFERING_ID> zoneid=<ZONEID> hypervisor=<HW> size=<SIZE> rootdisksize=<SIZE>

Sure @nvazquez. Will try this and post the results.

@zap51 thanks for confirming it, that is a workaround from the API. Another workaround from the UI is creating a fixed disk offering matching the expected disk size. This UI issue for custom disk offerings will be addressed on 4.17.1

@nvazquez Thanks!
