Hello, yes, we have 200+ containers all running on top of simfs in clusters. Most of the limitations of simfs mentioned above are not a problem to us as we use clustered LVMs on top of DRBD storage. Every container has its own file-system sitting on an LVM block device. This layout is universal for our OpenVZ and KVM guests (where a raw block device is passed to the guest). Different containers use different file-systems (ext4, xfs, nfs, ...), some containers share part of their file-system hierarchy with others in the cluster using ocfs2/gfs clustered file-systems. On non-cluster hosts, we sometimes use host- >guest bind-mounts as the way to share some data. Thanks to DRBD, live migration is also possible with minimal downtime.
The bossonvz libvirt driver at the moment only supports simfs (as that's what we are using nowadays). Is it somehow possible to use ploop in a cluster and share the virtual file- system between hosts? How can host->guest bind-mount be achieved without simfs? -- David Fabian Cluster Design, s.r.o.
