Even if that were true, that's not due to the workaround. The "not completely consistent" part is due to storage driver "dir", and you'll get it even without the workaround. I say "if that were true" because I'm not sure whether "lxc snapshot" calls "lxc pause" first. If it did, then the backup would be storage-level consistent. -- Fajar _______________________________________________ lxc-users mailing list lxc-users@lists.linuxcontainers.org http://lists.linuxcontainers.org/listinfo/lxc-users
