Stuck at Moving Volume

Hello,

I don't know if this is normal, but moving volume is now taking forever. I am currently moving an LXC volume from a ZFS volume to a lvm thin volume, and it is taking 10+ minutes without giving me any error nor status updates. This LXC is only 8GB in size.

Code:
  WARNING: You have not turned on protection against thin pools running out of space.
  WARNING: Set activation/thin_pool_autoextend_threshold below 100 to trigger automatic extension of thin pools before they get full.
  Logical volume "vm-303-disk-0" created.
  WARNING: Sum of all thin volume sizes (<368.99 GiB) exceeds the size of thin pool pve/data and the amount of free space in volume group (<16.00 GiB).

That's the end of the file, for 15 minutes Proxmox still hasn't finished moving an 8GB LXC.

The target volume has sufficient space, but it is not doing anything.
 
Same happened to me, new volime is created, but old is not deleted, and move volume is not finished after few days...
 
Hi,
please share the output of pveversion -v, the container configuration pct config <ID>, full task log and from what storage type to what storage type you are trying to move. It might be interesting to see the move task and siblings/parents in the output of ps faxl and the excerpt from the system journal from around the time when the issue happens.
 
Then maybe it was a hanging network mount point or similar?
