Thanks very much for the response and the forum confirmation sir! I tried this initially on a centos6u5 build with libvirt. I could not start the lxc on centos with libvirt with similar errors I posted about my luck on ubuntu. The reason I bounced to ubuntu was that it was very quick to stand-up the comparison of initializing an lxc guest via libvirt vs lxc-tools. Rhel/Centos have not added lxc-tools as readily grabbable rpms as of my last check. I will get lxc-tools installed on my centos vm and verify if I see the same behavior. I may also hit up the lxc-users list and see if anyone has experience similar Thx again and Regards ________________________________________ From: Eric Blake <eblake@xxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, July 15, 2014 11:47 AM To: Robb Walker; libvirt-users@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: starting lxcs from within a vm using libvirt On 07/15/2014 08:29 AM, Robb Walker wrote: > Just another ping, and please let me know if this is not the proper format to re-ask my submitted question, but anyone else having any joy on running lxcs via libvirt launched from within a vm? This is the right forum, even if no one has answered so far. Running lxc guests inside an L1 kvm guest should be possible (I haven't tried it myself, but doesn't seem like there should be any major obstacles). > > root@vullbvrt69:~# virt-install --connect lxc:/// -n vulslxc01 -r 512 --filesystem /qemu_lxc/ss_140521/,/ --serial pty --serial pty > > Starting install... > Creating domain... | 0 B 00:00 > error: failed to get domain '22542' > error: Domain not found: No domain with matching name '22542' Not sure where that error is coming from, since you named your domain vulslxc01 rather than 22542. I'm not much of an Ubuntu user myself, so I don't know how well lxc guests fare on that build; you may get faster response if you open a Launchpad ticket? > > This e-mail and any attachments may contain information that is confidential and proprietary This disclaimer is unenforceable on publicly archived lists; you may be better off sending from a personal account rather than from an employer's account that slams on bogus legalese. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org This e-mail and any attachments may contain information that is confidential and proprietary and otherwise protected from disclosure.
