Hi All,
We are using in our company for a prototype the docker hypervisor on
openstack. We have the need to mount a folder inside of a container.
To achieve this goal I have implemented a hack which allows to specify
a folder mount via nova metadata. For example a heat template could
look like:
my-container:
Type: OS::Nova::Server
Properties:
flavor: m1.large
image: my-image:latest
metadata:
Volumes: "/host/path:/guest/path"
This approach is of course not perfect and even a security risk (which
is in our case no issue since we are not going to provide a public
cloud).
Any other ideas or plans how to provide the volume/folder mount in the future?
regards,
Daniel
