Contexts

Contexts are defined as the FreeBSD operating system context where a helper script or configuration should reside, being either in the root FreeBSD operating system, within jails, or both. Each helper script and configuration has a context defined in its header where it is best suited to be used. Those contexts are defined below.

Defined Contexts

NOJAIL

This script or configuration should reside only within the root FreeBSD operating system (not within jails).

JAILONLY

This script or configuration should reside only within FreeBSD jails (not within the root operating system).

ANY

This script or configuration should reside within either the root FreeBSD operating system, or its jails.

Example Definition

The context header within a helper script or configuration may look like this:

# Version: 1.0.0
# Context: ANY                 Can be used in host OS or jails
