Moving a thinly provisioned vmdk file to a new datastore - now it's thick?

Hello all,

 

To elaborate on the title a bit, basically I installed a second hard disk in my ESXi 4 server.  All of my VMs are using thinly provisioned disks, however, after I moved the VM's files to the new datastore (by using mv) and readded the VM to inventory, the disks are no longer thinly provisioned but are thick.  Is this behavior expected?
