Is it possible to make discard='unmap' the default for virtio-scsi disks? (Related, is it possible to make virtio-scsi the default disk type, rather than virtio-blk?)

I was under the impression that it gets its "hypervisor default" device types from libvirt. -- =======================================================================Ian Pilcher arequipeno@gmail.com -------- "I grew up before Mark Zuckerberg invented friendship" -------- ========================================================================
