Steven Benario #4941 For a bit more information on how Windows does containerization (hint: it doesn't involve a rootfs), you can check out a recent blog post from the Greenhouse team: https://engineering.pivotal.io/post/windows-containerization-deep-dive/ toggle quoted message Show quoted text On Thu, May 19, 2016 at 11:47 AM, Duncan Winn <dwinn(a)pivotal.io> wrote: sorry JK - it's still early am (ignore what I just said) - the stack is the specific rootfs - the container image is a combination of a droplet plus a stack. The container image will then run in your garden process. For a windows stack you would need a windows vm/cell to run it.

If you have a "base VM" of, say, Linux -- and if that's the one bosh is deploying to all the cells, how does that become a `windows2012R2` stack in CF? -- Duncan Winn Cloud Foundry PCF Services -- Duncan Winn Cloud Foundry PCF Services attachment.html attachment.html
