[Lxc-users] lxc-clone -s -B lvm, deletes original lv if no space left!

[zoolook]

Hello,

this is one is weird. lxc-clone removes the original volume if there's
no space to create a snapshot for the clone

ii  lxc                             0.9.0.0~staging~2013 amd64
       Linux Containers userspace tools


sysadmin at lxc0:~$ sudo lxc-clone -s -B lvm -p /srv/lxc -P /srv/lxc -o
test1 -n test101
  Volume group "vg_vmstorage" has insufficient free space (617
extents): 2097 required.
lxc: could not create /dev/vg_vmstorage/lxc-test101-root snapshot of

lxc: error copying storage

The vg is small (10GB). The original container is 8G. It's a test
cluster so no damage is done.

Thanks!
