I think that switching simfs/ploop defaults for existing systems is something that should have been announced well in advance.
Something like "ploop will be the default form the next stable release of vzctl forward, prepare for it" should have been announced... Perhaps I missed it, but I didn't see anything on the web page, user mailing list or in the forum.
As for the first post in this thread, I see some valid points.
Two things I'm in disagreement with:
- EXT4 is not at it's end of life or in any way deprecated. The fact that RHEL 7 is using XFS as default doesn't mean any such thing
- openvz isn't switching it's focus to ploop now... it seems to me that this has happened a good while ago. IMHO, this change in vzctl default settings is just the culmination of the development effort, meant to gather more ploop users quickly.
That being said, I would love if openvz could support simfs on more than just EXT4. Having a valid choice between ZFS, BtrFS, XFS or EXT4 would be great. But I gess it's just too much work.
