Why am I able to mount /home/pauld/wdred/vm01:/ but not /wdred/media:/?
pauld@nas01:~$ mount | grep vm0
/dev/mapper/vgwdred01-lvvm01 on /home/pauld/wdred/vm01 type ext4 (rw,relatime,stripe=32,data=ordered)
/dev/mapper/vgwdred01-lvvm02 on /home/pauld/wdred/vm02 type ext4 (rw,relatime,stripe=32,data=ordered)
pauld@nas01:~$ ls -ld /home/pauld/wdred/vm01
drwxr-xr-x 6 pauld root 4096 May 26 2013 /home/pauld/wdred/vm01 <-- this I can mount in my container
pauld@nas01:~$ mount | grep wdred
/dev/mapper/vgwdred01-lvmedia on /wdred/media type ext4 (rw,relatime,stripe=4096,data=ordered)
pauld@nas01:~$ ls -ld /wdred/media
drwxr-xr-x 12 root root 4096 Oct 30 20:23 /wdred/media <— unable to mount in container. Docker complains that the filesystem is read only, error while creating mount source path ‘/wdred/media’: mkdir /wdred: read-only file system
What user needs to own and what permissions are required to mount a host filesystem into a container in rw mode ? This isn’t clearly documented anywhere …
It doesn’t even make sense as to why docker is trying to run mkdir if the source already exists.
This is my working directory
pauld@nas01:~$ ls -l
