OCF_HEARTBEAT_LXC(7)

NAME
ocf_heartbeat_lxc - Manages LXC containers

SYNOPSIS

lxc [start | stop | monitor | meta-data | validate-all]

DESCRIPTION

Allows LXC containers to be managed by the cluster. Notes for lxc Versions before 1.0.0, where the Container is stopped using kill -PWR instead of lxc-stop: It is 'assumed' that the 'init' system will do an orderly shudown if presented with a 'kill -PWR' signal. On a 'sysvinit' this would require the container to have an inittab file containing "p0::powerfail:/sbin/init 0"

SUPPORTED PARAMETERS

container
    The unique name for this 'Container Instance' e.g. 'test1'.

    (unique, required, string, no default)

config
    Absolute path to the file holding the specific configuration for this container e.g. '/etc/lxc/test1/config'.

    (required, string, no default)

log
    Absolute path to the container log file

    (optional, string, default "/var/run/resource-agents/RESOURCE_ID.log")

use_screen
    Provides the option of capturing the 'root console' from the container and showing it on a separate screen. To see the screen output run 'screen -r {container name}' The default value is set to 'false', change to 'true' to activate this option

    (optional, boolean, default false)
