[Gluster-devel] Smoke test question

[Luis Pabon]

Thank you for the quick reply.  I add the host xfs directory to the container using the docker -v switch to the 'run' command.  It works really well.  I probably need to clarify that the steps highlighted below are not run inside the container, but instead I run them on the host system.  I tried both CentOS 6.5 and Fedora 19 and both systems failed to pass the posix compliance tests on xfs and ext4.  I need to see how to make the tests pass consistently on the local file systems. Once I do that, then I can investigate running the tests inside the container.
