Got a strange one here…
Two servers one Ubuntu 20.04.3 and one 20.04.2
Both running the LXD snap 5.0.0-c5bcb80
Both using BTRFS backed storage pools
Every night server A backs up its LXD containers to server B using:
lxc copy container serverb:container --storage=default --refresh --mode=relay
This has been working fine for years but last night it got partially the way through the backups (backed up a few containers) and then failed.
Running the command on its own this morning returns:
Error: Error transferring instance data: Failed getting instance storage pool name: Instance storage pool not found
Both servers have plenty of disk, both servers appear to be functioning perfectly, all containers are visible on both servers.
Server A has two storage pools…
lxc storage info default
info:

driver: btrfs
name: default

lxc storage info default

I’m a little baffled as I can’t figure out whats wrong, can anyone point me in the right direction as my google skills aren’t coming up with an answer?
Thanks
