As per topic title really, if you try to create a large (I.e Several 100's of GB) mount point for an LXC container on a slow storage (Such as HDD) the job can timeout because the image is still being created.

Ideally this should be backgrounded similar to the vm/container creation jobs


Edit: Only seems to be a problem if the image is being put on storage that requires the entire image to be pre-written
