Hi all. Has someone success story with using autofs + nfs inside libvirt LXC container ? In my case nfs client and server in lxc work just fine, but with autofs hang on system call state(). I use CE7_64 on nodes and inside container with libvirt 1.2.18 May be I must set some of capabilities in <feature> (http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man7/capabilities.7.html) ? I try only CAP_SYS_ADMIN

...to a directory with a list of symbolic links (such as \\samba\d418 above). When you descend into this directory, the Samba server will kick off the automounter in this directory and mount everything in /d418. This becomes a big problem when there are *many* symbolic links in a directory pointing to autmounted paths (which would then cause lots of NFS mount). So, what I would like is a "just in time links" option that returns the symbolic link to the File Manager and, not until the user "double clicks" on an entry that is a symbolic link, have it followed (and thus kick off the auto...

Additioanl info. after start automount inside LXC, in /etc/mtab added string: /etc/auto.nfs /host autofs rw,relatime,fd=6,pgrp=679,timeout=10,minproto=5,maxproto=5,indirect 0 0 And autmount hang on lstat('/host/SOMETHING') If comment lstat() in code, automount would try make directory inside /host/ and mkdir in such case return -1: 126 int ret = mkdir(path, mode); (gdb) p path $3 = 0x7ffff7fc5250 "/host/vortex" (gdb) p mode $4 = 365 (gdb) n 127...

...lly just reserve 15-30% of the disk allocation instead of making pre-made spares of each class -- but I would at least make _2_ "discretionary" size (instead of one big one). I also use "/export" when I know I'm going to be exporting them via NFS (and setting up my NIS/LDAP autmounter maps accordingly). Otherwise I use /home. Even if I'm not sure I'm going to export via NFS, if I'm sharing via SMB, then I put them under /export. In a nutshell, if they are network mountable (for whatever protocol), they are under /export. > as well as quotas. I've not use...

I have very large samba installations running off Solaris 10u11 - very stable - and AD integrated with the OS. A new problem has arisen I hope someone can shed light one when accessing autmounted /net host directories. Running Samba 3.6.24 on Solaris 10u11 x86 Server A?? hosts logs files and can nfs mount other servers to consume their logs via the automount /net path. Users want to read the live logs through the automounts as well now from a common portal and samba is the perfect sol...

I saw in another post that a best practices doc will be coming, but I figured I would try to get this working. I''m trying to understand why zfs uses so many "zfs create" so I can use it better. What makes sense is that each zfs fs can have it''s own options (compression, nfs, atime, quota, etc). I really love this because it is so tuneable -- compression on these

OK, I know that there''s been some discussion on this before, but I''m not sure that any specific advice came out of it. What would the advice be for supporting a largish number of users (10,000 say) on a system that supports ZFS? We currently use vxfs and assign a user quota, and backups are done via Legato Networker. >From what little I currently understand, the general
