LXC-STOP(1) LXC-STOP(1)
lxc-stop - stop the application running inside a container
lxc-stop -n name [ -W ] [ -r ] [ -t timeout ] [ -k ] [ --nokill ]
[ --nolock ]
lxc-stop reboots, cleanly shuts down, or kills all the processes
inside the container. By default, it will request a clean shutdown of
the container by sending lxc.signal.halt (defaults to SIGPWR) to the
container's init process, waiting up to 60 seconds for the container
to exit, and then returning. If the container fails to cleanly exit
in 60 seconds, it will be sent the lxc.signal.stop (defaults to
SIGKILL) to force it to shut down. A request to reboot will send the
lxc.signal.reboot (defaults to SIGINT) to the container's init
process.
The [-W], [-r], [-k] and [--nokill] options specify the action to
perform. [-W] indicates that after performing the specified action,
lxc-stop should immediately exit, while [-t TIMEOUT] specifies the
maximum amount of time to wait for the container to complete the
shutdown or reboot.
-r,--reboot
Request a reboot of the container.
-k,--kill
Rather than requesting a clean shutdown of the container,
explicitly kill all tasks in the container. This is the legacy
lxc-stop behavior.
--nokill
Only request a clean shutdown, do not kill the container tasks
if the clean shutdown fails.
--nolock
This option avoids the use of any of the API lxc locking, and
should only be used if lxc-stop is hanging due to a bad system
state.
-W,--nowait
Simply perform the requestion action (reboot, shutdown, or
hard kill) and exit.
-t,--timeout TIMEOUT
Wait TIMEOUT seconds before hard-stopping the container.
0 The container was successfully stopped.
1 An error occurred while stopping the container.
2 The specified container exists but was not running.
The container was not found
The specified container was not created before with the lxc-
create command.
