Dear
I have to restore a container on a new server. The older server crashed.
I had lxc export of all my containers
First restoired the lxc config by this command
cat lxd.config.backup | lxd init --preseed
Then restoring the image but it fails when error Error:
Failed importing backup: Failed checking snapshots: Snapshot count in backup config and storage device are different: Backup snapshots mismatch
The lxc containers I am restoring are taken via an lxc export.
Not sure my container had snapshot , probably it had based on the error.
my goal is just to restore my container. ( I don 't care about any snapshots)
The version from LXD is newer then the server before not sure its related.
Hope you can help me.
