Re: [lxc-users] Migration from LXD 2.x packages to LXD 3.0 snap

How exactly did you upgrade from 2.x deb to 3.0 snap?

I've made a test "upgrade" on one server, but it didn't really result in 
an upgrade:


- the old deb install was left with its containers and settings

- the new snap version was installed in a different place, and was 
managing its own containers and own settings



Though I didn't investigate later how to move the containers from the 
deb setup to snap setup (I could probably import/export, but it would 
take a while on production servers).

Thomas,

I don't know if you have been able to answer your own question or not,
but moving from 2.x on my workstation to 3.x did not interrupt the
containers I had running on my local machine. It does not mean that if
you have a specific filesystem back end (btrfs, zfs) that there isn't
something that you need to do. Hopefully you've been able to continue
on!

[lxc-users] Migration from LXD 2.x packages to LXD 3.0 snap

[Thomas Ward]

I'm currently using the Ubuntu backports repositories in 16.04 to get
LXD 2.x packages.  LXD 3.0 was released recently, and it seems to work
better with the networking now, getting over issues I had within the LXD
2.x series snaps.

However, I've got a bunch of containers running within the LXD 2.x
infrastructure.  Is there any documentation on how I go about moving
from the LXD 2.x packages to the LXD 3.0 snap?  Short of rebuilding the
entire system again, that is.
