All the data from the snap is accessible through /var/snap/lxd
(mostly in /var/snap/lxd/common/lxd
). If necessary, this can be manually backed up and restored as was /var/lib/lxd
with the deb.
The snap content itself is in /snap/lxd/current/
and we have a number of snap set
options to tweak the behavior of the snap (see LXD snap: Call for testing).
We also have a mechanism in place to sideload a manually built/debug lxd binary onto a snap install, so that we can distribute emergency fixes or capture extra debug information.
