Copy the folder (watch out rsync flags) to /var/lib/lxd/storage-pools/default/containers/, symlink to /var/lib/lxd/containers and run 'lxd import'. Thank you very much. It nearlu worked. Anyway, it fails (in this case) because : Error: The storage pool's "default" driver "dir" conflicts with the driver "btrfs" recorded in the container's backup file If you know how lxd use btrfs to create the container storage (using subvolume?), you can probably create it manually, and rsync there. Or you can create another storage pool, but backed by dir (e.g. 'lxc storage create pool2 dir') instead of btrfs/zfs. Or yet another way: - create a new container - take note where its storage is (e.g. by looking at mount options, "df -h", etc) - shutdown the container - replace the storage with the one you need to restore-- FajarThank you, I think to that. But what is sure is that my "old" container is labelled as btrfs and after rsync on a "non btrfs" volume, the btrfs label remains....You can edit backup.yaml to reflect the changes. Here's an example on my system:
Fine, it was the missing point ! Thank you very much
In the case of "copy" (instead of backup and restore) like in my case, you'd want to change "volatile.eth0.hwaddr" too. Otherwise you'd end up with multiple containers with the same MAC and IP address.No need in my case : it is only a workaround as for some mistery, my "lxc *move*" fails.
