first thought put it in lxc-create then again, conversion is needed too hence i also want an lxc-convert i am coming from a qemu background so qemu-img does create and convert so optimum is to see an lxc-convert and have that function also available as part of lxc-create On Fri, Jul 1, 2011 at

Hi, I have started using lxc to setup a pre-production system instead of KVM at first glance clone seemd to me that it would copy everything to a new roots but turns out that in case of LVM it will snapshot AFAIK snapshots are meant more for backup or testing some changes and discarding them

[Lxc-users] how to use cpuset.shares?

[Lxc-users] lxc-execute does not work with lxc.cap.drop = sys_admin

You may have missed to lxc-create the container. You shoulld run: lxc-create -n [container-name] -f [/path/to/config-file] -t [template-name] for example lxc-create -n vm0 -f [lxc-veth.conf] -t debian On Wed, Aug 24, 2011 at 10:17 PM, nishant mungse nishantmun...@gmail.com wrote: hello

according to my test cpu.shares just points to per cpu time, suppose you have 3 container, A ,B, C : A: lxc.cgroup.cpu.shares = 512 B: lxc.cgroup.cpu.shares = 512 C: lxc.cgroup.cpu.shares = 128 you run while(1) ++i; in A, B C. their cpu usage appears to be different in machine having different
