Sorry to reply to my own thread, but I think this requires an extra post.

I am attempting to run containers with their private area stored entirely on a NFS mount and am having some issues:

In the ve: (debian)

root@ve:/# apt-get update
E: Could not get lock /var/lib/apt/lists/lock -open (5: Input/output error)
E: Unable to lock directory /var/lib/apt/lists/
E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock -open (5: Input/output error)
E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?

Are there any fundamental problems with running a container in an nfs share? Am I dong something silly?

Note that the /vz/root/ is not in the nfs share.

Thanks for your help
