iostat into CT

[Andrii]

How can I hide to display block devices using iostat and other utils?
Asking about LXC.

The problem is that they exist in /proc, therefore they exist in any tools accessing it. I do not know if you can hide them.

Use a VM instead of a container.

We use and VM too. But CT is cheeper. And the staff have access to guest system, so we can help to our client faster.
Also we can share the drive, and we can't do it on KVM and save the snapshot at that time.
CT use smaller memory then VM.
And it is a simpler to setup CT from template and make some change on startup.

Sure, that is why we support containers ;-) But container does not hide all host details - if you want/need that, use a VM instead.
