So… Documentation mentions “Secondary backup LXD server” for backup strategy, and I think that’s great. However, I cannot figure out how to properly sync profiles between the production and the backup server. They are rather important to back up, and can change over time. The ideal solution would be if something like --refresh
existed for lxc profile copy
, but alas, as far as I can see, there is nothing like that. I cannot override once copied profiles. I cannot also remove them, and copy again because the backed up containers are dependent on them. So… What are you guys doing for backing up profiles? Is there any plan to make --refresh
option available for lxc profile copy
?

lxc profile show NAME | lxc profile edit remote:NAME
should do the trick

That’s great! I would strongly consider adding a --refresh
option to the profile copy
command, though, as that’s something that’s intuitively searched for when figuring out how to sync profiles. Thanks!
