two logical volumes for same container

[lethargos]

Hi,
I backed up one of my lxc-containers and then I restored it with another VMID. After restoring it, I see that there are two disks (logical volumes) associated with the respective ID: /dev/mapper/pve-vm--3306--disk--1 and --2. The original container naturally has only one disk associated with it. I don't understand why that is. They are both the same size (138GB), but one only has 2.9GB used space, whereas the other (disk--2) 66GB. The original container takes about 68GB (maybe the sum of the two, but not sure, it's ±1GB).
Why is this happening?

If I write anything with the container, only disk--2 seems to be used.
Any ideas?
I'm using proxmox 4.4-13.

Hi,

Proxmox VE 4.4 is out of support please update to Proxmox VE 5.x

I can't momentarily, it's a production server, so I needed it to be up. Nonetheless, I'm sure the question is not directly related to the version of proxmox, as long as we're talking about lvm with lxc.

Sorry for taking this old thread out, but I have the same issue on the recent Proxmox. While searching for this problem, I stumbled across this thread and wanted to ask how this is fixable?

Well, I can assure you that in the meantime I've almost forgotten what LXC-containers mean

Solved it by removing the LXC and checking the box to remove all unreferenced volumes.
