I've been attending a Sun workshop yesterday (about Solaris 10, zones/containers, and HA). There's a number of close similiarities between HA on linux, and Linux paravirtualization technologies with Solaris zones/containers. Instead of vhashify (and symlinks) they're using loopback filesystem (LOFS) to minimize space for shared resources. I'm not sure why they chose that way, and didn't go for simple symlinks. -- Eugen* Leitl <a href="http://leitl.org">leitl</a> http://leitl.org ______________________________________________________________ ICBM: 48.07100, 11.36820 http://www.ativel.com http://postbiota.org 8B29F6BE: 099D 78BA 2FD3 B014 B08A 7779 75B0 2443 8B29 F6BE _______________________________________________ Vserver mailing list Vserver@list.linux-vserver.org http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver
