Hi guys,
Experimenting with and testing OpenVZ at the moment, and so far I'm impressed. Things more or less just work, which is a much better experience with other virtualisation products I've tried.
I have a question regarding MySQL. I like the idea of having a mysql server that's more or less isolated from the network. Is it actually possible to share the socket between containers? I've seen a few approaches like this:
http://forum.openvz.org/index.php?t=tree&goto=27708
But it would seem that mounting a directory in the host does not actually mount the directory in the container.
I've seen other approaches that rely on a cronjob and a hard link, and whilst I have yet to test one of those, I'd prefer to not have the overhead of a cronjob running every 15 minutes and I'd rather not worry about databases being inaccessible in the time between the mysql socket changing and said cronjob being run again.
I realise this has probably been dealt with many a time, but there doesn't appear to be anything recent on the topic.
