This page lists information on the creation of LXD storage pools.
A BTRFS storage pool can be created using the following command:
root # emerge btrfs-progs root # lxc storage create btrfs-1tb-1 btrfs source=/dev/sda4 root # lxc storage set btrfs-1tb-1 btrfs.mount_options compress=lzo
For ZFS, compression should be enabled by default:
root # lxc storage create zfs-1tb-1 zfs source=/dev/sdb
For more control over your storage pool, you can create it first using ZFS, and then add it as follows:
root # zpool create -f lxd-pool /dev/sda /dev/sdb root # zfs set compression=zstd lxd-pool root # lxc storage create lxd-pool zfs source=lxd-pool Storage pool lxd-pool created
The above example creates a striped zpool and allows compression to be set explicitly to your preferred setting (there is no easy way I can find to create a striped zpool using the lxc storage create command directly.)
