Thanks, that is something we'd like to have working well. Off the top of my head: - Do you have a plan for dealing with NFSv4? - Do you need any more kernel changes to get this working? - What about userspace changes? - Do you support migrating/failing over virtual nfs service between machines, and if so, how are you doing it? I've also been trying to work out whether it would be cleaner to do this sort of thing by building on top of Pavel Emelyanov's container work--cc'd. (Obnoxious of me, because I know he's working on something else right now, but perhaps he won't mind setting this email aside for now and responding when he gets some time back....) --b. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
