[Users] simfs support

[Jehan PROCACCIA]

Hello

virtuozzo7 based on centos7 (as I understood) is good to us
I think it is still possible to deploy openVZ7 on other distribs, probably painfull though ...add packages manually and patch kernel !

regarding the subject of this thread , simfs has the advandtage to have the filesytem of the Container as a directory tree on the host
that allows for incremental backups to be run on the hosts without over heating the backup server, whereas the ploop file change globally which make backup much more heavy .
perhaps there's a workaround, but I understood tha ploop FS has lot of advantages:
https://www.lowendtalk.com/discussion/37153/openvz-simfs-vs-ploop
http://openvz.org/Ploop/Why => not found anymore !? has it been moved ? 

if it's not hard for the dev team to maintain simfs stable in virtuozzo7 (at least without quota support) that would be a +
so I'll vote +1 
but if there's a way to optimize incremental backups with ploop , simfs will not be valuable to me .

regards .

Same here, but using Devuan for OpenVZ6.
