How exactly does LXD put the files from the images in place?

Hi,

ok, after removing all LXD containers that have been on this zfs from the LXD database by:

  1. zfs umount $dataset
  2. lxc delete $container

and readd them:

  1. zfs mount $dataset
  2. lxd import $container

all containers are running AND new container can also be added without issues.

So it would be great if someone could explain whats going on with this.

I opened a new topic for this to make it easier for others to find this “solution” alias workaround.
