I have lxc 0.7.2 on openSUSE 11.2, which is kernel 2.6.31 I get this all the time on my other boxes which up to now have been lxc 0.6.5 on the same kernel, but I've lived with it by just trying to never reboot containers, and only using containers for services that can stand to be rebooted so that I can actually reboot the host and thus all containers if I have to.
Now I have a few containers on another box with lxc 0.7.2 and the user of one of the containers tried to reboot his vps and it can't restart because there are cgroups files that can't be deleted. tasks file is empty in that cgroups directory, nj9:~ # cat /cgroup/nj10-014/tasks |od 0000000 nj9:~ # but there are several pid subdirectories with files in each. They can't be deleted. lxc-ps -elf shows no processes in that container. lxc-ls shows no containers at all, although definitely one other container is running and working and has processes in lxc-ps. And I can't really reboot the host this time without telling a lot of paying customers to get out and stop working for a while. I could probably get this container back up temporarily by just renaming it so it doesn't collide with the stale cgroups files, but the question is, I thought this was fixed? was it a kernel bug and I need a newer kernel to clear this up ? -- bkw ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Next 800 Companies to Lead America's Growth: New Video Whitepaper David G.
