HP 9000 Containers A.03.01 on HP Integrity Server Administrator Guide HP-UX 11i v3 (5900-3112, June 2013)
Figure 1 HP-UX 11i v3 Integrity file system configured with HP 9000 system container
There are two directories on the host system that are shared (using read only loopback mounts)
with HP 9000 system containers—/usr/lib/hpux32 and /usr/lib/hpux64. These directories
bring in ARIES libraries (for running PA-RISC executables) and other native Integrity libraries (for
running native commands and tools) inside the container.
7.2 HP 9000 classic container file system
On an HP-UX 11i v3 host OS instance, the system has three root directories. The directories are:
• Host (global container) HP-UX 11i v3 root (/)
• HP-UX SRP root (/var/hpsrp/<srp_name>)
• HP 9000 container root (/<hp9000_root>)
The HP 9000 container file system is not completely isolated from the HP-UX 11i v3 file system.
HP 9000 system daemons other than cron daemon, are not supported inside a classic container.
Applications inside the container interact with system services running on the HP-UX 11i v3 host
system. To enable this communication, a part of the file system is shared between the container
and the host system.
The shared directories are as follows:
• /dev
• /etc
• /net
• /tcb
• /usr/lib/hpux32
• /usr/lib/hpux64
• /var/adm/syslog
• /var/adm/userdb
• /var/mail
• /var/news
• /var/opt/dce/rpc
• /var/uucp
