All worked as expected, but when I looked at the underlying filesystem I realised that the container that has been copied onto the new machine retained its original uid/gid (running unprivileged): root@ii:/var/lib/lxd/containers# ls -al total 24 drwx--x--x 1 root root 58 Jun 23 12:01 . drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 182 Jun 23 12:04 .. drwxr-xr-x+ 1 100000 100000 56 Jun 23 10:38 backend -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4446 Jun 23 12:04 lxc-monitord.log drwxr-xr-x+ 1 100000 100000 56 Jun 23 12:01 putils (putils has been copied from a different host). I'd expect a new uid/gid to be allocated for the copied host.
