General issues with Linux
On Linux, the multiversion file system (MVFS) has the following limitations:
- A chroot operation to a directory in a view context is unsupported
- The NFS root file system type is unsupported
- View-extended naming of objects not in a VOB is limited to directories
and symlinks. After a view-extended pathname traverses a mount point
into a VOB, all view-private and VOB objects are accessible. For example:
- /view/viewtag/etc/motd (a plain file) cannot be accessed and returns an EACCES error
- /view/viewtag/tmp can be listed as a directory, but you cannot create files in it
- /view/viewtag/vobs/sources/... works normally
