Public bug reported: If I script a container start, I also want to script a wait until the container has finished booting. Otherwise I start using the container, write to /tmp, and then /tmp gets cleaned. I'm sure there are more race conditions, too.
It would be nice if lxc-wait could be extended to support some mechanism to detect this, or if not lxc-wait then some other generic mechanism that templates could then support. cloud-init writes a boot-finished flag which could be used on systems/templates that use cloud-init. Also see cloud-init bug 1258113. ** Affects: lxc (Ubuntu) Importance: Wishlist Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to lxc in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1266808 Title: No mechanism to wait until a started container is ready and has finished booting To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxc/+bug/1266808/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
