Description Arvid Requate

2015-04-14 18:03:12 CEST

Early warning: AUFS support will be dropped in Debian Linux Kernel starting with 3.18 ( https://lists.debian.org/debian-kernel/2014/12/msg00136.html ).
The new kernel will hit unstable ("stretch") shortly after the release of jessie.
The docker.io version 1.5 suports overlayfs (currently in experimental).

See also https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=775591 .

Since the docker.io storage ("graph") drivers for AUFS and overlay(fs) use different base and sub directories, there might be a demand for a migration tool.

UCS uses overlayfs. So this problem does not effect it.
