Dear PROXMOX support,

An error occurs when creating and deleting snapshots while running a container created on PROXMOX (6.4-13).
Could you tell me what the problem is?
PROXMOX is a 3-node cluster and uses ceph for storage.

You have configured encfs inside of your container and PVE has a problem with it.

When I use encfs, what are the problems with creating a snapshot?
Could you please tell me the solution?

Also, librbd errors occur when deleting a snapshot, is this also related to encfs?
Is there a solution for this too?

Yes, I think this is a bug an encfs filesystems should be ignored.

I have some additional questions regarding this.

Question about "failed to open <dir>: Permission denied" when creating a snapshot
1) Will this be improved by upgrading Proxmox to 7.4 or 8.0?
2) Is there a other way to avoid the error when we use Proxmox 6.4?
3) What are the consequences of ignoring this error?

Questions regarding "librbd::object_map::InvalidateRequest" when deleting snapshots
4) This error does not occur on other virtual machines with the same encfs configuration. Is encfs really related to the librbd error?
