Hi, I get an unusable lxc service in my host every now and then after creating a new container. Only after a reboot I can get it back to normal.
This is basically what I do (12.10 host): lxc-create -t ubuntu-cloud -n c.lxc -- --auth-key $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa.pub --userdata /root/webdocs.txt.gz The problem must occur quite early in the process, since there is no cloudinit log file in the container yet. Also I cannot ssh into the container: $ ssh c.lxc nc: getaddrinfo: Name or service not known ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host And these are the only files I see in the container's var/lib/cloud: $ cd /var/lib/lxc/c.lxc/rootfs/var/lib/cloud $ ls -R .: seed ./seed: nocloud-net ./seed/nocloud-net: meta-data user-data The lxc service gets unusable in the sense that: - I cannot stop the lxc service anymore - containers cannot be started anymore (also simple containers) The lxc processes stay in these state (even though I stopped and destroyed the containers & they do not turn up lxc-list anymore): # ps auxwww | grep lxc 103 1179 0.0 0.0 26032 964 ? S 11:59 0:00 dnsmasq -u lxc-dnsmasq --strict-order --bind-interfaces --pid-file=/var/run/lxc/dnsmasq.pid --conf-file= --listen-address 10.0.3.1 --dhcp-range 10.0.3.2,10.0.3.254 --dhcp-lease-max=253 --dhcp-no-override --except-interface=lo --interface=lxcbr0 root 12741 0.0 0.0 27540 972 ?

Ds 19:47 0:00 lxc-start -d -n b.lxc Note the "D" state of the container processes (D = Uninterruptible sleep (usually IO)) I don't have a reproduction path for this yet. Any ideas how to troubleshoot this further, in order to get a reproduction path?
