sanoid VS Moby

I’m on the other end of the spectrum. I like knowing the flags and settings I use to create the pools.

For snapshots and replication take a look at sanoid (https://github.com/jimsalterjrs/sanoid).

I use a combo of PBS and ZFS with Sanoid. The ZFS snapshots are nice because you define it all in a config file with frequent, hourly, daily, weekly, monthly snaps retained however you want. Importantly I use that on the root pool as well as my data pools. With PBS I have a custom retention config and have it backing up VMs and LXCs every couple hours. The PBS dedupe functionality makes it possible to keep full backups going back ages with minimal storage consumption, just the changed blocks. PBS is running inside a VM yes, but it’s storage is on another pool.

No, it's written by the developer of Sanoid and Syncoid. The foremost open source ZFS snapshotting tool. He contributes on this sub all the time.

Hi there! Not so much to answer your questions, but are you aware of Sanoid and syncoid? It does backup and remote Sync in the most seamless way. Perhaps this would solve some of your concerns...

Having been featured in our February 2023, and January 2024 Release Radars, Moby is the original Linux Container runtime. This new version adds a bunch of changes to the Docker CLI and Moby itself with additional features. There's bug fixes and enhancements, with the main thing for users to be on the look out for containers that were created using Docker Engine 25.0.0. These containers might have duplicate MAC addresses, and thus must be recreated. The same goes for those containers created with Moby 25.0+ and with user defined MAC addresses. Read up on all these changes in the release notes.

Formlabs does this as well for their 3d printers, my earliest encounter of this was when Docker started getting popular: https://github.com/moby/moby/blob/master/pkg/namesgenerator/...

Try to use moby instead since that is the engine in Docker.

> Podman is designed to help with this by providing stronger default security settings compared to Docker. Features like rootless containers, user namespaces, and seccomp profiles, while available in Docker, aren't enabled by default and often require extra setup.

Seccomp has been enabled by default since 2015: https://github.com/moby/moby/pull/18780

It is true that Rootless isn't enabled by default but its "extra setup" can be done with a single command (`dockerd-rootless-setuptool.sh install`)

Perhaps.

Thing is, https://github.com/moby/moby/blob/670bc0a46c4ca03b75f1e72f73... is using https://github.com/mistifyio/go-zfs which features code like `out, err := zfsOutput("get", "-H", key, d.Name)` (Source: https://github.com/mistifyio/go-zfs/blob/master/zfs.go#L315) to get a single zfs property.

Somebody chose to use a library as abstraction that looks good but is implemented as a MVP (nothing wrong with that). "In the future, we hope to work directly with libzfs" should have raised an alarm somewhere, though.

AppArmor can restrict /proc and this is even used by docker: https://github.com/moby/moby/blob/master/contrib/apparmor/te...
