[atomic-wg] Issue #281: Figure out comprehensive strategy for atomic host
container storage
by Dusty Mabe

``
ok in Fedora 27 and rawhide right now we default to overlayfs on root filesystem. The root filesystem is automatically extended on cloud images to fill all available space (this can be overridden using cloud-init).
[Early in this ticket](https://pagure.io/atomic-wg/issue/281#comment-443955) we discussed:
- 1 large filesystem by default
- Ability to easily move container storage to another filesystem on system setup.
The first is covered (it is the default) and the 2nd can be done using `CONTAINER_ROOT_LV*` options to container-storage-setup.
The only part I don't think we've covered is the [Storage for system containers](https://lists.projectatomic.io/projectatomic-archives/atomic-devel/2017-April/msg00031.html) discussion. In the case where we move container storage to another filesystem we aren't doing this for system containers.
I've opened a new issue to pick up this topic and carry it forward: https://pagure.io/atomic-wg/issue/350
Closing this ticket since most of the work is done.

[atomic-wg] Issue #350: Storage for system containers
by Dusty Mabe
dustymabe reported a new issue against the project: `atomic-wg` that you are following:
``
This started as a [discussion](https://lists.projectatomic.io/projectatomic-archives/atomic-devel/2017-April/msg00031.html) on atomic-devel some time ago. We recently overhauled the default for our storage (switch to default to overlay2 in F26 and [switch to overlay2 on our rootfs as default in F27](https://pagure.io/atomic-wg/issue/281)), however we need to still consider consolidating container storage among docker/oci/system containers so that whenever we do configure **container storage** to be on separate filesystems (via `CONTAINER_ROOT_LV*` options to container-storage-setup) we cover them all.
There are some positives and negatives to doing this. Here are a few:
- `+` container storage is configured for all container runtimes. an admin does not have to configure/consider the storage use for each of them
- `-` if we put system container storage on a different filesystem then we won't share storage with host ostree.
Let's continue the discussion on this topic here.
