I've tried changing the image file and containing dir's ownership to
oneadmin:cloud before creating the VM, but there's something in the
deployment scripts that reset these to root:root, as far as I can see.

Will try and investigate which is the culprit.

Hope this helps.

In the meantime, I would recommend using only non-persistent images on
shared file system, but that seems potentially dangerous to me, if not
saving the image before destroying/shutting down VMs (I'm not completely
sure about their lifecycles), depending on the admin's choices.

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
