If you're using LXC (lxc-* tools), then you should be able to just override the bdev option during lxc-create. But I have a suspicion that you are actually using LXD which works a bit differently than raw LXC. If using LXD 2.9 or higher (currently 2.14), then you can create a ZFS storage pool for those containers that can run on ZFS and a separate pool that's using a different backend (dir, lvm or btrfs) for your sql-server containers. I'm going to guess that you're using Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, if that's the case and you want to opt-out of the LXD LTS branch (2.0.9 right now) and opt into the LXD feature branch (2.13 rihgt now), you can do so with: - apt install -t xenial-backports lxd lxd-client At which point you'll be on LXD 2.13 and will be able to use the "lxc storage" commands to create multiple storage pools using different backends. -- Stéphane Graber Ubuntu developer http://www.ubuntu.com
