LXC-INFO(1) LXC-INFO(1)
lxc-info - query information about a container
lxc-info -n name [ -c KEY ] [ -s ] [ -p ] [ -i ] [ -S ] [ -H ]
lxc-info queries and shows information about a container.
-c, --config KEY Print a configuration key from the container. This option may be given multiple times to print out multiple key = value pairs. -s, --state Just print the container's state. -p, --pid Just print the container's pid. -i, --ips Just print the container's IP addresses. -S, --stats Just print the container's statistics. Note that for performance reasons the kernel does not account kernel memory use unless a kernel memory limit is set. If a limit is not set, lxc-info will display kernel memory use as 0. A limit can be set by specifying lxc.cgroup.memory.kmem.limit_in_bytes = number in your container configuration file, see lxc.conf(5). -H, --no-humanize Print the container's statistics in raw, non-humanized form. The default is to print statistics in humanized form.
These options are common to most of lxc commands. -?, -h, --help Print a longer usage message than normal. --usage Give the usage message -q, --quiet mute on -P, --lxcpath=PATH Use an alternate container path. The default is /usr/local/var/lib/lxc. -o, --logfile=FILE Output to an alternate log FILE. The default is no log. -l, --logpriority=LEVEL Set log priority to LEVEL. The default log priority is ERROR. Possible values are : FATAL, CRIT, WARN, ERROR, NOTICE, INFO, DEBUG. Note that this option is setting the priority of the events log in the alternate log file. It do not have effect on the ERROR events log on stderr. -n, --name=NAME Use container identifier NAME. The container identifier format is an alphanumeric string. --rcfile=FILE Specify the configuration file to configure the virtualization and isolation functionalities for the container. This configuration file if present will be used even if there is already a configuration file present in the previously created container (via lxc-create). --version Show the version number.
lxc-info -n foo Show information for foo. lxc-info -n 'ubuntu.*' Show information for all containers whose name starts with ubuntu. lxc-info -n foo -c lxc.net.0.veth.pair prints the veth pair name of foo.
