Hi

Is it possible to snapshot a container?

I've always used raw for everything but coming up on a few situations (having recently moved some stuff over to CT) where snapshots would be useful

It has to be done through ZFS on the hypervisor ? No QCOW2?
 
Aha! Thank you

So presumably this means there is nothing on the front end for it - But If I convert my raw to QCOW2 using qemu-img - The snapshot feature will work?
 
OK; so I've got the wrong end of the stick here.

CT (LXC) will not support QCOW2. I converted and it would not boot (however snapshot did work!)

I had to create a new ZFS at data centre level and start using that - Move storage then also works.

I've been adverse to this; trying to make things files any keep them accessible across networks etc - I should move away from this!

Thanks for the help!
