Re: [Libvir] [RFC] Add Container support to libvirt

OpenVZ also provides a /domain/container/filesystem tag, though it uses a concept of filesystem templates auto-cloned per container rather than explicit mounts. I think I'd like to see <filesystem type="mount"> <source dir="/home/user/lxc_files/etc/"/> <target dir="/etc/"/> </filesystem> For the existing OpenVZ XML, we can augment their <filesystem> tag with an attribute type="template". Again this is pretty similar to needs of VServer / OpenVZ. In the existing OpenVZ XML, the gateway and nameserver tags are immediately within the <network> tag, rather than nested inside the <ip> tag. Aside from that it looks to be a consistent set of information. As Daniel points out, we've thus far explicitly excluded tuning info from the XML. Not that I have any suggestion on where else to put it at this time. This is a minor thing though, easily implemented once we come to a decision. Pretty close.
