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?

4) This error does not occur on other virtual machines with the same encfs configuration. Is encfs really related to the librbd error?
