I am having a LXD cluster using CEPH for backend sotrage. The host OS is Ubuntu 20.04. It has been running smoothly and the host OS has been updated without problem. After the recent update and reboot, it is not possible to start the container. The error reported was
Error: Storage pool "remote" unavailable on this server
remote is the name of the storage pool.
lxc storage list

I noticed this
time="2022-12-24T10:43:32+08:00" level=error msg="Failed mounting storage pool" err="Placeholder volume does not exist" pool=remote
But, I am sorry that I have no idea what it meant.
Is the Mount Point missing?
How can I fix it please?
Merry Christmas to everyone.
