Hi Rémy, There is a lot of space on that server and I did an rsync of that container manually.
The strange thing is that at the end of the snapshot, all the files and directories had been copied to the snapshot directory but the snapshot process initiated by the snapshot command never got terminated. So I made several tries to understand what was going on. Every time, after I killed the snapshot command, the related container's snapshot directory got deleted. That's why I reported the issue. Like I said in a previous message, I will move all the stuff hosted on that server to another one (ZFS) soon. So I don't really care about the problem but may be someone else could bump on it too. I don't know. Thanks!
