Provisioning VxVM volumes as data volumes for containers
Depending on the application you are running, you may choose to export VxVM volumes as data volumes inside a container.
Export a VxVM data volume to a container using the -v flag with the docker run commands . You can mount multiple data volumes by passing the - v flag multiple times in the docker run command.
In order to use a raw VxVM volume inside a container, either assign privilege permissions to the Docker container or pass the raw volume as a --device
option in the docker run command.
To export a VxVM data volume to containers:
- On the host system create volume and mount it.
# vxassist - g dockerdg make containervolume 1G
# docker run -it -v /dev/vx/dsk/dockerdg/containervolume:/mnt/vol rhel bash
The VxVM volume is mounted inside the container at
/mnt/vol
.
