Could you elaborate on “and I really do not think it is a good idea as such”?

I understand the concerns about OCI primitives. The directory based option as mentioned in the meeting is not viable. Use of an independent tool is fine but with the considerations...

Sounds good. With that we need steps to mount a host mount-point inside container.

I tried mounting from host to container directly using the namespace. 1. Find container mount namespace path, say /var/lib/containers/storage/overlay/c7b9dc790ebfcd55f853bb25824194ea5155e9a9637c582f66711a134be0884c/diff 2. Create mount path, say `mkdir /var/lib/containers/storage/overlay/c7b9dc790ebfcd55f853bb25824194ea5155e9a9637c582f66711a134be0884c/diff/mnt/newvol` 3. Mount from host...

@mheon , @rhatdan , Any thoughts on the previous comment?

It’s a ubi-initd based image running NFS server and gssproxy with ability to connect to AD/LDAP domain (using SSSD). Users can SSH to the container.

The podman command is used to start the container and create checkpoint.
