Hi Brian,

I tried the suggestions on a host running Ubuntu 16.04.5 LST and OpenStack Queens devstack installation with LXD/LXC 3.0.1 (its storage backend was zfs). However, I wasn't able to recognize the nova-lxd driver with OpenStack. Thus, I tried to do "a configuration bruteforce" to see how does the current situation looks like. So we can see that LXD/LXC 2.O.X is best supported (you can create a virtual machine without a volume), however, it doesn't support GPUs for example -> LXD/LXC 3.X is a better choice.

On the other hand, a zfs storage backend causes lots of problems. I spent some time to fix it somehow, but I just swapped an error for another error (maybe I did something wrong, all in all, this is my experience with the zfs storage backend). Thus, I was curious, how the other configurations are supported and the results are summarized at the previous mail.

Now, I think I need a help with choosing the best configuration for LXD/LXC 3.X and how to run it properly. There are too many options and I would like to avoid playing with all of them.

Best,
Martin.

I don't know if this will help you at all with your specific problem but I had read an email thread by one of the nova-lxd plugin developers <https://www.reddit.com/r/LXD/comments/9gud4o/install_tips_from_a_maintainer_of_the_openstack/> that I thought was useful
info so I posted it on the LXD sub-reddit.
