One of the other VM clones is running. What do I need to do to mount the sparse-zvol dataset that is this disk image that won't boot? I'm still confused as to why one of these VM images would boot and not the other. They are both Centos 7 1708. At any rate, before taking a chance of shutting this image down, I'd appreciate any help to mount this other zvol and make sure the crc feature is disabled.
