Hi, On one of my machines I started to run out of space so I started to see where I could save space. On my Gentoo host I already share portage(ro) and distfiles(rw) trees with the vservers, the vserver bin packages I save separately for security reasons.
The same for documents and man pages, although you must be able to write to /usr/share/doc and /usr/share/man. /etc/vservers/gentoo-guest-1/fstab # Essentials /usr/share/doc /usr/share/doc none bind,rw 0 0 /usr/share/man /usr/local/share/man none bind,ro 0 0 Gentoo has a compiler in it's base installation and requires it for all the installations done. So the next thing logical thing for me is sharing the compiler amongst the vservers which will save me 119Mb for every vserver. My only concern was that this might break something, for the time being I've mounted on the specific version I'm sharing. /etc/vservers/gentoo-guest-1/fstab # GCC /usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/3.4.6/ /usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/3.4.6/ none bind,rw 0 0 /usr/libexec/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.6/ /usr/libexec/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.6/ none bind,rw 0 0 /usr/share/gcc-data/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.6/ /usr/share/gcc-data/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.6/ none bind,rw 0 0 /usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/3.4.6/ /usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/3.4.6/ none bind,rw 0 0 /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.6/ /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.6/ none bind,rw 0 0 cya, Daniel blaze your trail -- redhat _______________________________________________ Vserver mailing list [email protected] http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver
