I’m trying to import an existing container image and am getting an error that the disk is out of space when it has plenty of free space. The image in question is a zstd compressed image that is 470GB compressed and about 600GB uncompressed. I have a 4TB SSD mounted on /var/snap/lxd. My storage pool is another 4TB SSD setup as ZFS. This is ubuntu server 22.04.1 running on a physical machine with 64GB of RAM. Is there some other directory that needs space for the lxc image import process?
josh@lxdtest2:~$ lxc image import mnt/tmp/102-metadata.tar.gz mnt/tmp/102.img.zstd --alias image1
