Now, almost a year on and officially [out of beta](http://www.miradore.com/blog/miradore-online-moves-successfully-beta-production/), I’ve dusted off my account for another look to see what’s changed, what hasn’t and to get a hands on with their new business tier; a paid upgrade to add just that little bit more to what has already proven to be a great little MDM solution.

In this article I’ll walk through the installation of LXD, ZFS and Bridge-Utils on Ubuntu 16.04 and configure LXD to use either a physical ZFS partition or loopback device combined with a bridged networking setup allowing for containers to pick up IP addresses via DHCP on the (v)LAN rather than a private subnet.

This walkthrough assumes you already have a Ubuntu 16.04 server host set up and ready to work with. If you do not, please [download](http://www.ubuntu.com/download/server) and install it now.

You’ll also need a spare disk, partition or adequate space on-disk to support a loopback file for your ZFS filesystem.

Finally this guide is reliant on the command line and some familiarity with the CLI would be advantageous, though I’ll do my best to make this a copy &amp; paste article as much as possible.

20GB of disk will be enough for this guide, but naturally the amount chosen should reflect the amount of data to be stored. Furthermore, if redundancy isn’t offered as standard it’s always a good idea to mirror/RAID the storage area to avoid downtime as best as possible. Typically this is only a consideration required with dedicated servers, but there’s no harm in checking.
