Since LXC is just a glorified chroot, the code inside lxc is always running on the host kernel without you having to do anything special. And no separate kernel is needed inside the container; the host kernel is all there is. So, assuming the new kernel isn't broken, the containers should continue working. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
