clone failed
Clone seems to work when container is stopped, so my guess is container requires to be stopped before clone will work.
Be great if lxc-clone kicked out a message to "clone failed because original container is currently running", rather than "clone failed".

LXC 1.1.* is deprecated and so is lxc-clone. Please switch to a newer LXC version and use lxc-copy. Thanks!
