Administrative tasks: All VxFS and VxVM administrative commands, such as resize, add volumes, reorganize volume sets, so on are supported only on host nodes. These administrative commands cannot be executed inside Docker containers.
Security-Enhanced Linux (SELinux): SELinux is a Linux kernel module that provides a mechanism for supporting access control security policies. For data volumes backed by VxFS mount points, SELinux needs to be in disabled or permissive mode on host nodes.
Package installation only on host nodes: Installation and configuration of InfoScale solutions inside containers is not supported.
Root volume: Veritas does not recommend exporting root volumes to Docker containers.
Data loss because volume devices are not synchronized: If a volume is exported to a Docker container, some VxVM operations, such as removing volumes, deporting a disk group, renaming a volume, remirroring a disk group or volume, or restarting VxVM configuration daemon (vxconfigd) , can cause the volume device to go out of sync, which may cause data loss.
