It looks like otto is not a valid remote here (have you added it and
does it show up in `lxc remote list`?). If you do something like:

lxc remote add otto http://otto.local:8443 # or whatever the hostname is

it'll be a valid remote and you can do the syntax you're suggesting.

In the meantime, we should really warn a user that the remote they're
using is not valid, instead of assuming the whole thing is a container
name. I'll send a patch to `lxc` for that.
