File System Type Test on HUB #109

Closed gstanden closed 3 years ago

gstanden commented 6 years ago

Need to test for specific fs types (elif cases) and the else can be the default lxc-copy method. Need to do a check for the pre-install snapshot of nameserver on reinstall mode do prevent dupes. Also, documentation should discuss the option to create a dedicated xfs filesystem with the correct d_type and fftype settings mounted at /var/lib/lxc prior to installing Orabuntu-LXC (see https://linuxer.pro/2017/03/what-is-d_type-and-why-docker-overlayfs-need-it/ ) for overlayfs support. Note that Orabuntu-LXC also can just use an out-of-the-box xfs file system even if d_type is not set correctly, but in this case Orabuntu-LXC avoids using any snapshots and avoids using LXC ops that would require overlayfs support in the xfs filesystem. And add the xfs_info check for xfs file systems that are setup to support overlayfs.

Done.
