I'm considering adding a number of jails to my freeNAS box.
These jails would each support a single app: Minimserver (extremely metadata savvy DLNA server for audio) in one, Datacrow in another and a cloud server of my own design in a third jail.
Now, all these apps need java so, why install java in each one??
Either java gets installed in the FreeNAS top environment ( in which case all jails will see java, right??? ) or in each special jail. The latter seems like a waste.
But cluttering up the FreeNAS top environment seems like something to avoid.
FreeBSD seems to be able to set up a parent jail and sub jails, where all software needed by all sub jails is installed in the parent jail.
Can that be done in FreeNAS? I can't seem to find a way in the mgmt gui at least.
