[lxc-users] LXC copy snapshots only to remote?

[Lai Wei-Hwa]

Hi Fajar, 

Yes, I'm aware of other alternatives. My question is geared towards how LXD/LXC works with snapshots. 

Thanks!

Thanks Fajar, 

I'm more interested in if I'm right or wrong and why that's the case. 

Incremental snapshot support is in LXD 3.0 but I'm asking in relation to LXC, not LXD. And I'm really looking to clear up my (mis)understanding. 





Ah, I must not have the most recent info then. 

Regardles when (or if) the devs decided to implement it in lxc (even support in lxd seems not completed yet: [ https://github.com/lxc/lxd/issues/3326 | https://github.com/lxc/lxd/issues/3326 ] ), you could always perform storage-level backup yourself. Particularly handy if you have lots of containers, use zfs, and use recursive incremental send.
