SYNOPSIS

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

DESCRIPTION

lxc-info queries and shows information about a container.

OPTIONS

-c, --config KEY

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

Just print the container's state.

-p, --pid

Just print the container's pid.

-i, --ips

Just print the container's IP addresses.

-S, --stats

Just print the container's statistics. Note that for performance reasons the kernel does not account 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, --no-humanize

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.
