LXC-START(1) LXC-START(1)
lxc-start - run an application inside a container.
lxc-start -n name [ -f config_file ] [ -c console_device ] [ -L
console_logfile ] [ -d ] [ -F ] [ -p pid_file ] [ -s KEY=VAL ] [
-C ] [ --share-[net|ipc|uts] name|pid ] [ command ]
lxc-start runs the specified command inside the container specified
by name.
It will setup the container according to the configuration previously
defined with the lxc-create command or with the configuration file
parameter. If no configuration is defined, the default isolation is
used.
If no command is specified, lxc-start will use the command defined in
lxc.init.cmd or if not set, the default "/sbin/init" command to run a
system container.
-d, --daemon
Run the container as a daemon. As the container has no more
tty, if an error occurs nothing will be displayed, the log
file can be used to check the error. (This is the default
mode)
-F, --foreground
Run the container in the foreground. In this mode, the
container console will be attached to the current tty and
signals will be routed directly to the container.
-p, --pidfile pid_file
Create a file with the process id.
-f, --rcfile config_file
Specify the configuration file to configure the virtualization
and isolation functionalities for the container.
This configuration file if present will be used even if there
is already a configuration file present in the previously
created container (via lxc-create).
-c, Specify a device to use for the container's console, for
example /dev/tty8. If this option is not specified the current
terminal will be used unless -d is specified.
-L, Specify a file to log the container's console output to.
-s, --define KEY=VAL
Assign value VAL to configuration variable KEY. This overrides
any assignment done in config_file.
-C, If any file descriptors are inherited, close them. If this
option is not specified, then lxc-start will exit with failure
instead. Note: --daemon implies --close-all-fds.
--share-net name|pid
Inherit a network namespace from a name container or a pid.
The network namespace will continue to be managed by the
original owner. The network configuration of the starting
container is ignored and the up/down scripts won't be
executed.
--share-ipc name|pid
Inherit an IPC namespace from a name container or a pid.
--share-uts name|pid
Inherit a UTS namespace from a name container or a pid. The
starting LXC will not set the hostname, but the container OS
may do it anyway.
These options are common to most of lxc commands.
-?, -h, --help
Print a longer usage message than normal.
--usage
Give the usage message
-q, --quiet
mute on
-P, --lxcpath=PATH
Use an alternate container path. The default is
/usr/local/var/lib/lxc.
-o, --logfile=FILE
Output to an alternate log FILE. The default is no log.
-l, --logpriority=LEVEL
Set log priority to LEVEL. The default log priority is ERROR.
Possible values are : FATAL, CRIT, WARN, ERROR, NOTICE, INFO,
DEBUG.
Note that this option is setting the priority of the events
log in the alternate log file. It do not have effect on the
ERROR events log on stderr.
-n, --name=NAME
Use container identifier NAME. The container identifier
format is an alphanumeric string.
--rcfile=FILE
Specify the configuration file to configure the virtualization
and isolation functionalities for the container.
This configuration file if present will be used even if there
is already a configuration file present in the previously
created container (via lxc-create).
--version
Show the version number.
The container is busy
The specified container is already running an application. You
should stop it before reuse this container or create a new
one.
