Hello,

I am curious to learn what specific benefits you are seeking to run in a 
container versus a traditional virtual machine given the usual Spacewalk model. 
 It seems like an interesting endeavor and perhaps a worthwhile discussion.

Thanks Michael.

My main worry is to figure out what all files I have to mount in the container 
to keep the changes persistent on restart. Most of the articles I searched 
doesn't talk about it. They run sync commands directly inside the container 
without mounting any local volumes. I would imagine all the data is gone on 
container restart. I will check the links you sent.

Anyways, I got the answer. I think I will skip the container install for now.

Cheers,
ac

Hello Ananta,

Spacewalk in container has not been tested / supported.
Some users tried and reported their progress:
