When I rolled back the ct container snapshot, this error occurred:lvremove 'pve/vm-101-disk-0' error: Logical volume pve/vm-101-disk-0 contains a filesystem in use.
I searched for relevant content on Google, but there is very little relevant content. It is basically related information on the pve forum. Because my native language is Chinese, I did not find a solution through browser translation.

Do you have any nested mounts in your CT configuration?

Please post the content of /etc/pve/lxc/101.conf and the output of mount inside the CT.

Are you running Docker inside the unprivileged container, and are there any Docker containers running?

Please also post the output of the failing task log. You can click on the task log in the GUI and download the log.
Also, Your container is in the locked state. The error would be different, but if you need to manually unlock the container run pct unlock 101
 
Yes, when I created a container, I checked the right -free container by default. And the Docker installed in it, and run a docker container Portainer.

Hi,
might not be related to the issue at hand, but just mentioning that it's better to run Docker in a VM. From the documentation:
If you want to run application containers, for example, Docker images, it is recommended that you run them inside a Proxmox QEMU VM. This will give you all the advantages of application containerization, while also providing the benefits that VMs offer, such as strong isolation from the host and the ability to live-migrate, which otherwise isn’t possible with containers.
In the past, users also reported issues with incompatibilities after certain upgrades when running Docker in a container.

However, when using rclone to mount the Google dirve network disk, an error occurred that the snapshot could not be rolled back. Apparently it's not just docker that can cause errors. Finally, I want to ask, can this problem be solved?
 
Now I cannot destroy the lxc container and it will also show: lvremove 'pve/vm-101-disk-0' error: Logical volume pve/vm-101-disk-0 contains a filesystem in use.
 
Can you rollback the container when the container is stopped?

Please post the output of the following from within the container to see what mounts you have enabled

Code:
mount

I can't rollback the snapshot when the container is stopped, and now destroying the container doesn't work either!

You mentioned that you're mounting Google Drive from within the container. I don't see this here in your mountpoints.

Using a FUSE mount inside a container is not recommended [1].

Disable onboot option on the CT
Try to revert / remove the CT after a reboot so that the mountpoints are not active.

Consider using a VM for Docker and FUSE mounts instead of a CT

That was a long time ago when I used rclone to mount google dirve and the snapshot could not be rolled back. Because I knew that it would be unable to be rolled back, I did not use rclone this time. Auto-starting has been disabled. The current situation is: restarting pve still cannot delete the lxc container, delete the snapshot, and cannot roll back the snapshot. You can only reinstall the pve system. In other words, the technology in pve and lxc is not mature.
