Mei Wan commented on MESOS-2971: -------------------------------- Hey Jie! Have you had time to take a look? > Implement OverlayFS based provisioner backend > --------------------------------------------- > > Key: MESOS-2971 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-2971 > Project: Mesos > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Timothy Chen > Assignee: Mei Wan > Labels: twitter > > Part of the image provisioning process is to call a backend to create a root > filesystem based on the image on disk layout. > The problem with the copy backend is that it's both waste of IO and space, > and bind only can deal with one layer. > Overlayfs backend allows us to utilize the filesystem to merge multiple > filesystems into one efficiently. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
