             Summary: Support auto backend in Unified Containerizer.
                 Key: MESOS-5931
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-5931
             Project: Mesos
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: containerization
            Reporter: Gilbert Song


Currently in Unified Containerizer, copy backend will be selected by default. 
This is not ideal, especially for production environment. It would take a long 
time to prepare an huge container image to copy it from the store to 
provisioner.

Ideally, we should support `auto backend`, which would 
automatically/intelligently select the best/optimal backend for image 
provisioner if user does not specify one from the agent flag.

We should have a logic design first in this ticket, to determine how we want to 
choose the right backend (e.g., overlayfs or aufs should be preferred if 
available from the kernel).
