Hi Larry,
below is an example config file like I use it for LXC containers. I followed the
instructions
(https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__wiki.debian.org_LXC&d=DwIGaQ&c=RoP1YumCXCgaWHvlZYR8PZh8Bv7qIrMUB65eapI_JnE&r=C7gAd4uDxlAvTdc0vmU6X8CMk6L2iDY8-HD0qT6Fo7Y&m=BmWCVeE72QTY9ubXpj4I5tnxoA7khmxQhKu6cPriu-Y&s=XWKvduHietaYbL3xzVzkxDF9-WncOOXJneQ7413qJP0&e=)
and downloaded a Debian 8 container as user (unprivileged) and adapted the
config file. Several of those containers run on one host and share the OCFS2
directory as you can see at the "lxc.mount.entry" line.
Meanwhile I'm trying whether the problem can be reproduced with shared
mounts in one namespace, as you suggested. So far with no success, will report
once anything happens.
Regards,
Daniel

I thought of there is a way to share a directory between host and docker
container, like
?? docker run -v /host/directory:/container/directory -other -options
image_name command_to_run That's different from yours.
How did you setup your lxc or container?
If you could, show me the procedure, I'll try to reproduce it.
And by the way, if you get rid of lxc, and just mount ocfs2 on several different
mount point of local host, will the problem recur?
