lxc-ps ? >From Dobrica Pavlinusic's LXC script: init_pid=`lxc-ps -C init -o pid | grep "^$name" | cut -d" " -f2-` So if you're looking for 'init' in a container called pegasus: lxc-ps -C init -o pid | grep "^pegasus" | cut -d" " -f2- Yields 24766 on my system, and a regular ps ax | fgrep init does give: 24766 ?
