WARNING: Image format was not specified for 'json:{"port": 26203, "host": "10.103.3.23", "driver": "openvstorage", "volume": "testje", "transport": "tcp"}' and probing guessed raw.
         Automatically detecting the format is dangerous for raw images, write operations on block 0 will be restricted.
         Specify the 'raw' format explicitly to remove the restrictions.

That kind of information is not kept when a snapshot is taken so unix 0 is being used instead.

@cnanakos

Doesn't the volumedriver store this info? Anyway we can provide this info?

after discussion with @cnanakos voldrv doesn't hold that information yet.
