Do you mean
  mv /bin/bash /bin/bash.old
  cp /bin/bash.old /bin/bash
ie a cp for the second command?

I'm not totally familiar with vhashify semantics, but the two commands
you wrote would leave the inode number unchanged, and so it would still
be a hard link to the unified file.

[Vserver] Another conceptual newbie question

2006-05-09 Thread Fareha Shafique 

Hi,

I read in one of the threads on the mailing list archive that Vservers 
use CoW. I'm having trouble understanding where, how and for what it is 
used?


Thanks,
-FS
