The user's home directory is on a remote NFS server. The original container is created with sudo lxc-create -t ubuntu -n foobar -- -r lucid --bindhome $LOGNAME The ephemeral container is started with lxc-start-ephemeral -o foobar The user logs in to the ephemeral container. This hangs. After that, any reference to the home directory -- inside or outside of the container -- seems to hang. mount in the container shows: none on / type overlayfs (rw,relatime,lowerdir=/var/lib/lxc/buildhost2-ubu10,upperdir=/tmp/lxc-lp-v92y7NU) none on /mnt/home/builder type overlayfs (rw,relatime,lowerdir=/mnt/home/builder,upperdir=/var/lib/lxc/buildhost2-ubu10-temp-loNNGB5/ephemeralbind/mnt/home/builder) mount outside the container shows: obnas1a:/vol/homes/builder 419430400 362328576 57101824 87% /mnt/home/builder But sometimes, mount outside the container shows nothing for /mnt/home/builder after the problem happens. This seems 100% repeatable. --- AlsaDevices: total 0 crw-rw---T 1 root audio 116, 1 Sep 14 15:17 seq crw-rw---T 1 root audio 116, 33 Sep 14 15:17 timer AplayDevices: aplay: device_list:252: no soundcards found...
