Recover datastore

Hello there,

I have lost /var/lib/lxd but i still have the datastore which is a directory.

lxc profile device add default root disk path=/home/pc/.store pool=default
Error: Device validation failed for "root": Disk entry is missing the required "source" or "path" property

Any idea what that means? And if there is a way to recover my containers / bring in my data store?

All good. Had to use the recovery tool. And at that point was self explainatory, the tool would tell what devices/profiles are missing and had toi create them adn re-run the tool to import. However not all containers and machines appeared, do not know why.

Hi!

What type of storage are you using? ZFS?

Regards.

Which ones are missing compare to your underlying storage directory?
