NAME

       lxc-info - query information about a container

SYNOPSIS

       lxc-info {-n name} [-c KEY] [-s] [-p] [-i] [-S] [-H]

DESCRIPTION

       lxc-info queries and shows information about a container.

OPTIONS

       [-c KEY]
              Print a configuration key from the container. This option may be given multiple times to print out
              multiple key = value pairs.

       [-s]   Just print the container's state.

       [-p]   Just print the container's pid.

       [-i]   Just print the container's IP addresses.

       [-S]   Just  print the container's statistics.  Note that for performance reasons the kernel does not ac‐
              count kernel memory use unless a kernel memory limit is set. If a limit is not set, lxc-info  will
              display kernel memory use as 0. A limit can be set by specifying

                          lxc.cgroup.memory.kmem.limit_in_bytes = number

              in your container configuration file, see lxc.conf(5).

       [-H]   Print the container's statistics in raw, non-humanized form. The default is to print statistics in
              humanized form.

       These options are common to most of lxc commands.

       -?, -h, --help
              Print a longer usage message than normal.

       --usage
              Give the usage message

       -q, --quiet
              mute on

       -P, --lxcpath=PATH
              Use an alternate container path. The default is /var/lib/lxc.

       -o, --logfile=FILE
              Output to an alternate log FILE. The default is no log.

       -l, --logpriority=LEVEL
              Set  log  priority to LEVEL. The default log priority is ERROR. Possible values are : FATAL, CRIT,
              WARN, ERROR, NOTICE, INFO, DEBUG.

              Note that this option is setting the priority of the events log in the alternate log file.  It  do
              not have effect on the ERROR events log on stderr.
