Ostensibly you should be able to create as many container ids as you have space for, and the simple creation of container ids doesn't seem like the resource strain I would be concerned about here, given that an orchestrator can still create as many containers as the system will otherwise allow, which will consume significantly more ram/disk/etc. > /* Indicates that audit should log the full pathname. */ > #define AUDIT_NAME_FULL -1 > > -- > 1.8.3.1 > >
