| hi,
Sure, I will update the kernel as per your recommendation. Thank you for help and prompt replies! In regards to “sharing thin-pool” - there are no VMs, only LXD that is using VG and thin-pool. After digging more I found relevant article:
This might be the reason. I will investigate it more and share results here.

It’s Ubuntu 18.04.3:
$ lvm version
LVM version: 2.02.176(2) (2017-11-03)
Library version: 1.02.145 (2017-11-03)
Driver version: 4.37.0
$ uname -a
Linux gandalf 4.15.0-72-generic #81-Ubuntu SMP Tue Nov 26 12:20:02 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
It’s weird as same error occurred few minutes ago. I wanted to take snapshot of thin volume and it first returned the following error:
$ lvcreate -s --name vmail-data-snapshot vg1/vmail-data
Using default stripesize 64.00 KiB.
Can't create snapshot vmail-data-snapshot as origin vmail-data is not suspended.
Failed to suspend thin snapshot origin vg1/vmail-data.
Then I tried with different volume:
$ lvcreate -s --name owncloud-data-snapshot vg1/owncloud-data
Using default stripesize 64.00 KiB.
Thin pool vg1-thinpool1-tpool (253:2) transaction_id is 574, while expected 572.
Failed to suspend vg1/thinpool1 with queued messages.
Same error when then tried to export LXD’s container:
HiWhile I'd highly recommend to move to kernel 4.20 (at least) - from name of your volumes - it does look like you are using thinp in some 'cloud' environment.For thin-pool it's critically important to always have thin-pool active only on a single machine. You must never run thin-pool activate on multiple machines (even if one machine is not using it - but just has it active).So we have seen already many times user have actived thin-pool on their host machines and then passed devices into virtual machines and used there the same thin-pool (so thin-pool has been activate multiple times at the same time).So please carefully check if this is not your case - as this would nicely explain why your 'transaction_id' got so much different.RegardsZdenek
