[SOLVED] Moving Container Fails

I have a container that I created on a directory storage and I'm trying to move the disk to LVM-thin storage. Is there any way to do this? Everytime I try to move the volume I get an error. I think it may not be possible (at least through the GUI).

Bash:
  Logical volume "vm-901-disk-0" created.
Creating filesystem with 2097152 4k blocks and 524288 inodes
Filesystem UUID: 1ceda3a9-b204-4fba-b609-12e18b4a870c
Superblock backups stored on blocks:
    32768, 98304, 163840, 229376, 294912, 819200, 884736, 1605632
Specified filename /var/lib/lxc/901/.copy-volume-1 does not exist.
  Logical volume "vm-901-disk-0" successfully removed
TASK ERROR: storage 'local' does not support containers

Any ideas what might be happening?
 
I figured it out! Before I did this, I changed my local volume to no longer permit containers or VMs since I wanted to put them on my lvm-thin volume. However, that apparently prohibits a copy of the volume from being made during the move process. I re-enabled containers on my local volume and then it completed the copy successfully. I then made the configuration change again to stop new containers/VMs from being stored there.
