This commit adds the overlayfs type to the lxc_container module. In Adding the overlayfs type the commit adds the ability to clone a container. While cloning is not locked down to only the overlayfs container backend it is of particular interest when using the overlayfs backend as it provides for amazingly fast snapshots. Changes to the resource types and documentation have been added on how the new backend type can be used along with the clone operation. This PR addresses a question asked on the original merged pull request for overlayfs support which came from @fghaas on PR "https://github.com/ansible/ansible-modules-extras/pull/123". The overlayfs archive function is a first class function and will allow for the containers to be backed-up using all methods which brings support up to that of all other storage backends. |
