[lxc-users] LXD Image Handling

[Lai Wei-Hwa]

Per Stephane's [ https://stgraber.org/2016/03/30/lxd-2-0-image-management-512/ | blog post ] I would expect that ... 

lxc image copy remote:image local: --auto-update 

... should be sufficient for the job. But the docs say we need a recorded source. Should I assume that the source is recorded with the above command? 

Thanks!

>From [ https://lxd.readthedocs.io/en/latest/image-handling/ | the docs ] : 

On startup and then every 6 hours (unless images.auto_update_interval is set), the LXD daemon will go look for more recent version of all the images in the store which are marked as auto-update and have a recorded source server. 

How do we ensure that our images are auto-updated and have the source server recorded? 


    1. Can we do this when copying an image from a remote server? 
    2. Can we do this when deploying a local container based on an image from a remote server? 

I'm running the snap pack 2.20
