Hi,

I try to search information about this problem into Google or in this forum, but I didn't find any solution, someone already get this problem ?
The problem is I can't replicate a lxc container to an other node because of this mountpoint (which is actually not necessary files "backup", but I get the problem if it was), how I can force this replication process ?

Thanks.
 
Same problem here. We have read only bindmounts. The targets are on all servers. So CT is runnable. A force would be fine.
 
we cannot replicate bind mounts, because we do not know whats under there (could be a ext4 filesystem, sshfs, nfs, etc.) but we only can replicate zfs subvolumes and zvols

you can exclude mountpoints from replication though with 'replicate=0' for the mountpoint

This would be nice, but that didn't work. Or do i something wrong?
Code:
arch: amd64

hostname: ubuntudev.tux.local
memory: 2048
mp0: /v-machines/home,mp=/home,replicate=0
mp1: /v-machines/Downloads,mp=/mnt/Downloads,replicate=0
net0: name=eth0,bridge=vmbr0,hwaddr=32:34:64:37:32:36,ip=dhcp,ip6=auto,type=veth
onboot: 1

ok, yes that is indeed a bug
 
Yes I tried too with the latest version of proxmox, didn't work.

I will follow the bug report, thanks.
 
@dcsapak I was setting up replication via the UI and it complained "unable to replicate mountpoint type 'bind' (500)"...despite the mp having replicate=0 set.

I just retried and now it's not complaining, so not sure what to tell you, sorry! pve-manager/7.4-16 (soon to be 8..).

Cheers.

Which file I need to update for this ?

Just wanted to update that this still seems to be an issue on 8.2.4 at least. Shutdown the lxc, set mp0 mount to no replication, then upon trying to clone it, get the same 500 error that it can't clone the bind mount.

Double checking the lxc.conf file confirms that the replication=0 flag is set.
