Easy way to transfer files between host and LXC container on LVM
Revised answer: LXC containers share the same kernel as the host, so any filesystem they mount should be accessible from outside.

It’s not exactly “use no more than 30% of the available bandwidth”, but you can acheive the same effect with a little math. You can always … Read more
