I have an LXC container, where I setup the fstab to use a directory situated on an external usb disk. I need this because I use this container for disk intensive computations on my laptop, and I need to keep being able to work on it.
If I unmount the disk on my host system and then remount it (plug-in / plug-out), or simply the systems goes to sleep, then inside my container I am unable to access the mounted point again (io error)
I can understand it does not work out of the box, but what bother me is that I didn't find out how to remount the shared directory : I can unmount it from inside the container, but then how do I remount it. All the docs is about using lxc.mount or fstab to mount those directory which is ok if you restart the container, but I was unable to find a doc on how to mount a shared directory live on a running lxc container.
