created a basic ubuntu server ct , from template, converted to template:

Code:
cat /etc/pve/nodes/pve/lxc/1002.conf
arch: amd64
cores: 1
features: nesting=1
hostname: CT1001
memory: 1024
net0: name=eth0,bridge=vmbr1,hwaddr=86:0C:5E:73:F5:1A,ip=dhcp,type=veth
ostype: ubuntu
rootfs: local:1002/base-1002-disk-0.raw,size=10G
swap: 0
template: 1
unprivileged: 1

when execute link clone with gui got error:
Code:
Linked clone feature for 'local:1002/base-1002-disk-0.raw' is not available (500)

and
ct fullclone , kvm fullclone, kvm linkclone with there's converted template is all fine.

hi,

Linked clone feature for 'local:1002/base-1002-disk-0.raw' is not available (500)
linked clones can't be made on "directory" storage (default for local with ext4), you need to use a storage backend that supports this option like lvm-thin or zfs
