NAME

       runc-create - create a container

SYNOPSIS

       runc create [option ...] container-id

DESCRIPTION

       The  create  command  creates  an  instance of a container from a bundle.  The bundle is a
       directory with a specification file named config.json, and a root filesystem.

OPTIONS

       --bundle|-b path
              Path to the root of the bundle directory. Default is current directory.

       --console-socket path
              Path to an AF_UNIX  socket which will receive a  file  descriptor  referencing  the
              master    end    of    the    console's    pseudoterminal.     See   docs/terminals
              ⟨https://github.com/opencontainers/runc/blob/master/docs/terminals.md⟩.

       --pid-file path
              Specify the file to write the initial container process' PID to.

       --no-pivot
              Do not use pivot root to jail process inside rootfs. This should not be used except
              in exceptional circumstances, and may be unsafe from the security standpoint.

       --no-new-keyring
              Do  not  create  a  new  session  keyring  for  the  container. This will cause the
              container to inherit the calling processes session key.

       --preserve-fds N
              Pass N additional file descriptors to the container (stdio +  $LISTEN_FDS  +  N  in
              total). Default is 0.
