<br>
I can confirm that the device is created when setting second level 
quotas as stated.  Curious to know why it only exists for the second 
level quotas and if there should be an enhancement to remove stale 
devices?  Seems pretty messy over time when a container has ~10 ploop 
devices listed but only actually 1 available.   How often should the 
ploop device number change?  Is it every reboot?<br>

                  No, the script (and its appropriate symlinks) is
                  (re)created on every start (actually mount)
                  <br>
                  of a simfs-based container. It is a conversion process
                  that should get rid of it, unfortunately
                  <br>
                  vzctl doesn't do it currently, so has to be done
                  manually. Feel free to file a bug for vzctl.
                  <br>
                  <br>
                  Kir.

                    What I understood Kir to say was that the script was
                    created as part of the conversion process and should
                    have been automatically removed (like it was
                    automaically created) after the conversion was
                    complete. Why it wasn't removed I don't know... but
                    you can back up the file somewhere else... and
                    remove it... and if you have problems... you could
                    copy it back. I don't think any of that would be
                    necessary but who knows.<br>

I can't speak as to how to
 address the issue, but why do you consider it messed up?  I logged in 
to a few nodes and saw the same thing on all of them and I don't 
remember this being any different in the past.  The ploop device only 
exists outside of the container (when mounted).  Inside the container is
 just a reference, no actual device exists.<br>
<br>
I don't know enough about the original issue, what are you trying to 
accomplish with the ploop device inside the container?<br>
