vzlist

vzlist(8)							    Containers								 vzlist(8)

NAME

       vzlist - show various information about containers

SYNOPSIS

       vzlist [-a | -S] [-n] [-H] [-o name[,name...] | -1] [-s [-]name] [-h pattern] [-N pattern] [-d pattern] [CTID [CTID ...]]
       vzlist -L | --list
       vzlist --help

DESCRIPTION

       This utility is used for listing containers and their parameters.  By default only running containers are listed.  If one or more CTIDs are
       specified, only specified containers are displayed.

       For the fields that can have many values (e.g. ip), all the values are displayed only for the last (i.e. leftmost) column; otherwise,  only
       the first value is shown.

OPTIONS

       -a, --all
	      List all containers.

       -S, --stopped
	      List only not running containers (including the ones with status shown as mounted or suspended).

       -n, --name
	      Display container names instead of hostnames.

       -H, --no-header
	      Suppress displaying the header row.

       -o, --output field[,field...]
	      Display only the specified fields (see Standard fields subsection below).

       -1     Synonym for -H -octid, i.e. only show container IDs, one per line.

       -s, --sort [-]field
	      Sort  by	the  value  of field (possible arguments are the same as for -o). The - before the field name means sorting in the reverse
	      order.

   Output filters
       List of CTs can be further filtered using the following options.  For patterns one can use the same wildcards as in shell (i.e. *,  ?,  and
       []).   Note:  to  avoid	expansion  of wildcards by the shell, one have to escape the pattern by either putting it into single quotes (like
       'a*a') or by adding a backslash before the wildcard character (like a*a).

       -h, --hostname pattern
	      List only containers whose hostnames matches the pattern.

       -N, --name_filter pattern
	      List only containers whose names matches the pattern.

       -d, --description pattern
	      List only containers with descriptions matching the pattern.

   Possible fields
       -L, --list
	      list all available format specifiers that can be used for both output (-o, --output) and the sorting order (-s, --sort).

	      For the user beancounter fields, if suffix is not specified, current usage (a.k.a. "held") value is show. One can also use the  fol-
	      lowing suffixes:

	      .m     maxheld

	      .b     barrier

	      .l     limit

	      .f     fail counter

	      For the disk quota fields, if suffix is not specified, current usage is shown. One can also use the following suffixes:

	      .s     soft limit

	      .h     hard limit

EXAMPLES

       vzlist -o ctid,kmemsize,kmemsize.l -s kmemsize
	      Show CTIDs, kmemsize usage, and kmemsize limit for all running containers, sorted by the kmemsize usage.

EXIT STATUS

       Returns 0 upon success.
