Hi Saurabh, First of all. I think there are something wrong in you container configure file the <idmap> should under <domain>. such as <domain type='lxc'> <name>xxx</name> <memory unit='KiB'>102400</memory> <currentMemory unit='KiB'>102400</currentMemory> <vcpu placement='static'>1</vcpu> <resource> <partition>/machine</partition> </resource> <os> <type arch='x86_64'>exe</type> <init>/bin/sh</init> </os> <idmap> <uid start='0' target='1000' count='10'/> <gid start='0' target='1000' count='10'/> </idmap> <clock offset='utc'/> <on_poweroff>destroy</on_poweroff> <on_reboot>restart</on_reboot> <on_crash>destroy</on_crash> <devices> <console type='pty'> <target type='lxc' port='0'/> </console> </devices> </domain> If your system doesn't support user namespace and your container has configure file, then when you start container, this error will be threw out. error: Failed to start domain xxx error: internal error: guest failed to start: Kernel doesn't support user namespace: If your configure file is right and the libvirt_lxc doesn't throw out error message, it's a bug we should fix.

I tried to check for Namespaces Support in kernel menuconfig. It has support for following namespaces only: > > --- Namespaces support > [*] UTS namespace > [*] IPC namespace > [*] PID Namespaces > [*] Network namespace > > There is no User Namespace support. So do I need to patch the kernel for user namespace support? What should I do in order to get user namespace working? > > Following are my system details: > OS: Fedora 19 > Kernel: 3.9.5 > Disable the xfs filesystem, and then you will see User namespace under Namespaces support. Enjoy it. Thanks _______________________________________________ libvirt-users mailing list libvirt-users@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvirt-users
