Is there a way to create two disks for each container when I use devicemapper as the storage device and loop-lvm?
For now, when I create a container I get /dev/dm-1 disk. I need to have two separated disks for the container, /dev/dm-1 and /dev/dm-2. I’m using it for testing. The disk /dev/dm-1 should be used for the system, /dev/dm-2 should be available to format.
I not wont to use direct-lvm since it requires manual configuration for each container. My container should scale (I use docker-compose for this reason). Therefore, the number of containers often change.
