[lxc-users] Graceful Shutdown/Reboot

[Marat Khalili]

I suggest you to look for shutdown messages in the service log file, 
e.g. /var/log/mysql/error.log . I expect all sane distributions to at 
least try to stop all containers (as well as other processes) gracefully 
and give them some time to finish their work. However, I suppose it is 
possible to install and run LXC in a way that containers won't close 
correctly, so it makes sense to check first.
