A little bit of background here...

I started out with a 6 disk raid10 with a single lv. After realizing awhile into things that I couldn't snapshot a lxc without it residing on a thin pool, I resized the original lv and created a second lv that is a thin pool on the same raid10.

My first problem is that I can't seem to find a way to move my lxc container from the old lv to the new lv thin pool.

My second problem, is that I can't seem to create new lxc containers from templates on the thin pool - they all want to be created on the original lv :(

Suggestions? I've search the forum and google but I can't seem to find what I'm looking for here.

Hi,

First Problem use backup and restore.

Second do you have set on the Storage level the flag Container?
It is located in Datacenter->Storage doppel click you thin pool Storage.
