OCF_HEARTBEAT_LXC(7)						OCF resource agents					      OCF_HEARTBEAT_LXC(7)

NAME
ocf_heartbeat_lxc - Manages LXC containers SYNOPSIS
lxc [start | stop | monitor | meta-data | validate-all] DESCRIPTION
Allows LXC containers to be managed by the cluster. If the container is running "init" it will also perform an orderly shutdown. It is 'assumed' that the 'init' system will do an orderly shudown if presented with a 'kill -PWR' signal. On a 'sysvinit' this would require the container to have an inittab file containing "p0::powerfail:/sbin/init 0" I have absolutly no idea how this is done with 'upstart' or 'systemd', YMMV if your container is using one of them. SUPPORTED PARAMETERS
container The unique name for this 'Container Instance' e.g. 'test1'. (unique, required, string, no default) config Absolute path to the file holding the specific configuration for this container e.g. '/etc/lxc/test1/config'. (required, string, no default) log Absolute path to the container log file (optional, string, default /var/run/resource-agents/default.log) use_screen Provides the option of capturing the 'root console' from the container and showing it on a separate screen. To see the screen output run 'screen -r {container name}' The default value is set to 'false', change to 'true' to activate this option (optional, boolean, default false) SUPPORTED ACTIONS
This resource agent supports the following actions (operations): start Starts the resource. Suggested minimum timeout: 10. stop Stops the resource. Suggested minimum timeout: 30. monitor Performs a detailed status check. Suggested minimum timeout: 20. Suggested interval: 60. validate-all Performs a validation of the resource configuration. Suggested minimum timeout: 20. meta-data Retrieves resource agent metadata (internal use only). Suggested minimum timeout: 5. EXAMPLE
The following is an example configuration for a lxc resource using the crm(8) shell: primitive p_lxc ocf:heartbeat:lxc params container=string config=string op monitor timeout="20" interval="60" depth="0" SEE ALSO
