When publishing an image with a ‘floating alias’ say latest (on a private remote) which points to different images from time to time, how does the auto_update: true flag work? I noticed that when pulling the image from the remote, it is not updated immediately.
Is there a way tell LXD to always check if the alias has changed?
Best thing I could come up with is running:
lxc query /internal/testing/image-refresh
lxc image refresh should kick it without relying on an internal API that can change at any time.
Images get auto refreshed at a fixed interval which is configurable. By default that’s on startup and every 6 hours after that.
Is there a way to run lxc image refresh for all images?
Not currently, no. We’d need a new bulk update API for this.
