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>

I don't know enough about the original issue, what are you trying to
accomplish with the ploop device inside the container?<br>

<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>Kir.

Original Message -----<br></div><div><br>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><br>TYL,<br></div></div>
