Re: [Bug 951150] Re: lxc-start-ephemeral is not all ephemeral
Quoting Gary Poster (gary.pos...@canonical.com): Hi Serge. I don't actually know the original intent of -b, but what you say makes sense. I changed our code to change all bind mounts in the ephemeral's container to an ephemeral overlay, instead. That's kind of what I wanted anyway, but I was being lazy. :-) I also worried it would not be safe, but I thought about it some more and I think it might be fine. Also, now -b will change fstab rather than directly mounting, which simplifies some of the cleanup code. I'll add a changelog as you request. No need, I've pushed your patch. Please do check when it is published to make sure I merged the right branch :) thanks, -serge -- 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/951150 Title: lxc-start-ephemeral is not all ephemeral To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxc/+bug/951150/+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 951150] Re: lxc-start-ephemeral is not all ephemeral
Hi Gary, if that's what you want I'll happily import the branch, but my understanding was that the -b directory was meant as a way to copy the end result to the host. The branch addressing this isn't linked to this bug yet. Can you make sure to add a changelog entry with a (LP: #951150) and push, so that it will link to this bug? thanks, -serge -- 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/951150 Title: lxc-start-ephemeral is not all ephemeral To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxc/+bug/951150/+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

We still want to test it a bit more before we make an MP, but I'll link it now in case you have any thoughts you want to share early.
