[lxc-users] access to snapshots from within the containers

[Michel Jansens]

Hi Gunnar,

Thanks for your comment, it brings up some issue that are not clear to me:
I’m looking to build a production environment based on Ubuntu servers with ZFS storage and LXD ( similar architecture to what I have now on SmartOS).
I intend to buy Ubuntu server licences with support.
I understand that version 2.0.9 is not the latest version available upstream, but what I don’t get, is will I get support from Canonical if I use a more recent version?
If Canonical offers LXD2.0.x in 16.04LTS, maybe it is for stability concerns?

Thank you for any information on this.

Cheers,

Michel
