How to list storage pools and volumes

You can display a list of all available storage pools and the volumes in these pools and check their configuration.

Show storage pool information

Use the following command to list all available storage pools:

lxc storage list

The resulting table contains the storage pool that you created during initialization (usually called default or local) and any storage pools that you added.

To show detailed information about a specific pool, use the following command:

lxc storage show <pool_name>

Show storage volume information

To list all available storage volumes in a storage pool, use the following command:

lxc storage volume list <pool_name>

The resulting table contains the storage volume type and the content type for each storage volume in the pool.

To show detailed information about a specific volume, use the following command:

lxc storage volume show <pool_name> <volume_name>
