[Bug 1424233] Re: RFE lxc: lxc should do a better jon of housekeeping containers
Yepp, and that's IMHO a design flaw. E.g. if one wants to distribute the load on iots storage, it might make sense, to distribute the zones of several storage devices, e.g. zone1 on JBOD1, zone2 on JBOD2, etc As said, the only thing, which lxc nees to track is a single config directory which either contains the symlinks to the real zone configs OR the real config fails itself - since they usually contain lxc.rootfs = ..., there is not really a need, to keep it in its original place. And last but not least, IMHO LXC should have an interest to make things easy to manage for the users, otherwise there is no wonder, why everyone is talking about docker but not about lxc ... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to lxc in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1424233 Title: RFE lxc: lxc should do a better jon of housekeeping containers To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxc/+bug/1424233/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 1424233] Re: RFE lxc: lxc should do a better jon of housekeeping containers
All the LXC commands default to tracking a single lxcpath which is /var/lib/lxc or whatever you set as lxc.lxcpath in /etc/lxc/lxc.conf It is actually a feature that LXC will not attempt to keep track of containers outside that path because that's what we expect other container managers (like LXD) to do. There have been talks to support a list of lxc paths separated by a colon in lxc.lxcpath and as an argument of -P which will allow LXC to keep track of containers in multiple paths but that's still being discussed and there are problems with that which still need to be thought through. Anyway, all that to say, LXC upstream has absolutely no interest in keeping track of all containers on the system, if the user manually created containers outside of the lxcpath which LXC tracks, we assume they've done so on purpose and so will not interfere. ** Changed in: lxc (Ubuntu) Status: New = Won't Fix -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to lxc in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1424233 Title: RFE lxc: lxc should do a better jon of housekeeping containers To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxc/+bug/1424233/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
