Buna Dizzy,
Pana acum nu auzisem de ele dar ar fi interesant de aflat care este
cel mai sigur din punctul de vedere a separarii proceselor si al
securitatii. Andy probabil doreste sa invete diferite distributii dar
pe mine ma intereseaza ca daca root-ul virtual este compromis sa fie
aproape imposibil sa obtina root in server host sau sa schimbe route
si altele. La un moment dat si redhat a oferit un kernel compilat
cu support uml. Pe de alta parte UnixWare rula linux in
chroot.

UML este interesant din punctul meu de vedere ca filesistemul este
intr-un fisier si exista fisierelor-filesistem de tip copy-on-write
(COW).


The way to share a filesystem between two virtual machines is to
use the copy-on-write (COW) layering capability of the ubd block
driver. As of 2.4.6-2um, the driver supports layering a read-write
private device over a read-only shared device. A machine's writes
are stored in the private device, while reads come from either device
- the private one if the requested block is valid in it, the shared
one if not. Using this scheme, the majority of data which is unchanged
is shared between an arbitrary number of virtual machines, each of
which has a much smaller file containing the changes that it has made.
With a large number of UMLs booting from a large root filesystem,
this leads to a huge disk space saving. It will also help performance,
since the host will be able to cache the shared data using a much
smaller amount of memory, so UML disk requests will be served from
the host's memory rather than its disks.


Probabil solutia cea mai buna este cea mai simpla ca implementare
si care in acelasi satisface toate cerintele.

Multumesc dizzy,
Radu
