Hi Stéphane, Thanks for your reply. That explains things.
If you pardon the n00b I have a few more additional questions: I've been struggling to add an interface using the REST API while copying a container, but as far as I can judge if I copy an image I cannot add devices. Right? Also I've tried to make an image from a loclal container (again using the rest api). This doc:https://github.com/lxc/lxd/blob/master/doc/rest-api.md suggests using this dict: { "compression_algorithm": "xz", # Override the compression algorithm for the image (optional) "filename": filename, # Used for export (optional) "public": true, # Whether the image can be downloaded by untrusted users (defaults to false) "properties": { # Image properties (optional) "os": "Ubuntu" }, "source": { "type": "container", # One of "container" or "snapshot" "name": "abc" } } I tried this without any of the optional fields, but somehow no new image is made. (I was also wondering if I could name the image one way or another) Thanks, Frans 2017-02-12 18:45 GMT+01:00 Stéphane Graber <stgra...@ubuntu.com>: > On Sun, Feb 12, 2017 at 10:01:17AM +0100, Frans Meulenbroeks wrote: > > Hi, > > > > I want to get rid of the network interface that my container has, but > > somehow I can't figure out how to get that done. > > > > I have created a new container from scratch with: > > lxc launch ubuntu:14.04 my-ubuntu > > > > lxc config show my-ubuntu gives; > > > > architecture: x86_64 > > config: > > image.architecture: amd64 > > image.description: ubuntu 14.04 LTS amd64 (release) (20170202.1) > > image.label: release > > image.os: ubuntu > > image.release: trusty > > image.serial: "20170202.1" > > image.version: "14.04" > > volatile.base_image: > > 3b825a6a063aacc6b19df84f7ddc4fe872a0e382ec0bb92f475a9493b0857e01 > > volatile.eth0.hwaddr: 00:16:3e:25:48:06 > > volatile.idmap.base: "0" > > volatile.idmap.next: > > '[{"Isuid":true,"Isgid":false,"Hostid":231072,"Nsid":0," > Maprange":65536},{"Isuid":false,"Isgid":true,"Hostid": > 231072,"Nsid":0,"Maprange":65536}]' > > volatile.last_state.idmap: > > '[{"Isuid":true,"Isgid":false,"Hostid":231072,"Nsid":0," > Maprange":65536},{"Isuid":false,"Isgid":true,"Hostid": > 231072,"Nsid":0,"Maprange":65536}]' > > volatile.last_state.power: RUNNING > > devices: > > root: > > path: / > > type: disk > > ephemeral: false > > profiles: > > - default > > That shows that your container is inheriting from the "default" profile > which likely does include that eth0 device. > > lxc config show --expanded my-ubuntu > > Would show you the config with the profiles applied. > > To remove something that's inherited from a profile, you have to mask it > with something like: > > lxc config device add my-ubuntu eth0 none > > Which masks the inherited device "eth0" with an empty one. > > > Note: no nic device, but there is a volatile.eth0.hwaddr address > > > > And if I look into the container with lxc exec my-ubuntu -- ifconfig -a > > > > eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:16:3e:25:48:06 > > inet addr:10.202.122.138 Bcast:10.202.122.255 > Mask:255.255.255.0 > > inet6 addr: fe80::216:3eff:fe25:4806/64 Scope:Link > > UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 > > RX packets:95 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 > > TX packets:74 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 > > collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 > > RX bytes:19120 (19.1 KB) TX bytes:7960 (7.9 KB) > > > > lo Link encap:Local Loopback > > inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 > > inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host > > UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:65536 Metric:1 > > RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 > > TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 > > collisions:0 txqueuelen:1 > > RX bytes:0 (0.0 B) TX bytes:0 (0.0 B) > > > > And if I do lxc network show lxdbr0 I see that the container is using the > > bridge. > > > > $ lxc network show lxdbr0 > > config: > > dns.mode: dynamic > > ipv4.address: 10.202.122.1/24 > > ipv4.dhcp.ranges: 10.202.122.2-10.202.122.254 > > ipv4.nat: "true" > > ipv6.address: none > > name: lxdbr0 > > type: bridge > > usedby: > > ... > > - /1.0/containers/my-ubuntu > > ... > > managed: true > > > > > > ButI cannot remove the device from the bridge: > > > > lxc network detach lxdbr0 my-ubuntu > > error: No device found for this network > > > > Is there a way to get rid of this interface? > > > > (actually I want to attach eth0 to a different bridge) > > To attach it to a different bridge, you'll want to mask the inherited > "eth0" with another eth0 that's attached to the bridge you want: > > > lxc config device add my-ubuntu eth0 nic nictype=bridged > parent=new-bridge > > > Or on recent LXD, this will achieve the same: > > lxc network attach new-bridge my-ubuntu eth0 > > > > > Thanks in advance! > > Frans > > > _______________________________________________ > > lxc-users mailing list > > lxc-users@lists.linuxcontainers.org > > http://lists.linuxcontainers.org/listinfo/lxc-users > > > -- > Stéphane Graber > Ubuntu developer > http://www.ubuntu.com > > _______________________________________________ > lxc-users mailing list > lxc-users@lists.linuxcontainers.org > http://lists.linuxcontainers.org/listinfo/lxc-users >
