As a workaround I have my init script look for /forceboot inside the container's rootfs. I was going to have an entry like "upstart.autostart = [yes|no]" in the lxc.conf file, but lxc-start doesn't like unrecognized entries. >> * the stop function greps for /sbin/init in container inittab instead of >> trying to allow for any random container pid #1 > > Yeah, that little trick won't work with Ubuntu or Fedora using upstart. AFAIK init inside the container *MUST* be pid 1. pid 1 is handled specially by the kernel, such silently discarding all kill -9's sent to it. >> * starts containers in screen >> - I have not figured out what it would take to get nice behavior out of >> lxc-console yet and screen is both easy and standard. > > I usually start them with logging enabled and redirected with the -o > option. To each his own. I set lxc.console = /var/log/lxc/$utsname.log, which captures the container's /dev/console. lxc-console attaches to gettys on the container's /dev/tty[1-6]. If something is wrong in the start script, I can run lxc-start manually, replacing -d with -s lxc.console=/dev/stderr to get an interactive /dev/console. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ What happens now with your Lotus Notes apps - do you make another costly upgrade, or settle for being marooned without product support?
