NAME

       lxc.conf - Configuration files for LXC.

DESCRIPTION

       LXC configuration is split in two parts. Container configuration and system configuration.

   CONTAINER CONFIGURATION
       The container configuration is held in the config stored in the container's directory.

       A  basic  configuration  is  generated  at container creation time with the default's recommended for the
       chosen template as well as extra default keys coming from the default.conf file.

       That default.conf file is either located at  /etc/lxc/default.conf  or  for  unprivileged  containers  at
       ~/.config/lxc/default.conf.

       Details about the syntax of this file can be found in: lxc.container.conf(5)

   SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
       The  system  configuration  is  located  at  /etc/lxc/lxc.conf or ~/.config/lxc/lxc.conf for unprivileged
       containers.

       This configuration file is used to set values such as default lookup paths and storage  backend  settings
       for LXC.

       Details about the syntax of this file can be found in: lxc.system.conf(5)
