Lazy persistent storage volume provisioning
Methods and systems for provisioning persistent storage are disclosed. For example, a new isolated guest and associated persistent storage volume are requested to be created. The isolated guest is based on an image file in an image repository and is associated with metadata. An orchestrator obtains the image file. The orchestrator reserves the persistent storage volume by updating the system resource allocation database based on the metadata. The persistent storage volume is then created in the persistent storage based on the reservation of the persistent storage volume in the system resource allocation database. The orchestrator activates the constructed isolated guest and the isolated guest accesses the persistent storage volume.
