Seeing how busy you are, I'm doubt, it will ever happen:) Anyway, if there is no volunteer, just drop the request. I can live with a workaround (llxc-create container, zfs create/lvcreate dataset, mv container/* dataset/). Though I'm afraid there will be more features in the future, that require the layout compliance (eg. migration tool) and I'll be in trouble.. tamas ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Shape the Mobile Experience: Free Subscription Software experts and developers: Be at the forefront of tech innovation.
