[Lxc-users] lxc-destroy erase rootfs

[Roland Neary]

As it's so easy to redo a container I've come to love the lxc-destroy command.

Having said that, the huge pitfall is of course user expectation. The first time I looked at it it did exactly what I wanted, not what I thought it would do. 




Regards,

Actually neither xen, nor virsh destroys _data_ and until v0.7 (or v0.8?) lxc does it only if it was 
in /var/lib/lxc.

I'm and lxc user and that's why I'm surprised.
