[Lxc-users] Restarting LXC containers after power failure

[Moritz Kobel]

Hello David,

if you are using Ubuntu, there is a possibility to define containers to
start up automatically:

--< https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/lxc.html >-------------
To register a container to start automatically, create a symbolic link /etc/default/lxc/name.conf pointing to the container's config file. For instance, the configuration file for a container CN is /var/lib/lxc/CN/config. To make that container auto-start, use the command:

sudo ln -s /var/lib/lxc/CN/config /etc/lxc/auto/CN.conf
--------------------------------------------------------------------

This static configuration does not recognize which containers were
running before.


Does this help?

- Moritz
