  1. I’m backing up LXCs, like I’d back up a VM. I don’t back up Docker containers, just their config and volumes.
  2. I don’t think anyone is doing that. We’re talking about installing Docker in LXC. One of the Proxmox rules you can live by is to not install software on the host. I don’t see the problem with installing Docker in an LXC for that reason.
  3. I’ll snapshot a container before running things like a dist-upgrade, or testing something that might break things. It’s very easy, so why not?
  4. I back up my LXC that has Docker installed because that way it’s easy to restore everything, including local volumes, to various points in time.
