LXC

If you want to play with LXC on nova, here is how you do it. Before setting up LXC with nova you have to enable cgroups:

sudo mkdir /cgroup sudo mount none -t cgroup -o cpuacct,memory,devices,cpu,freezer,blkio /cgroup

And add to your /etc/fstab

none /cgroup cgroup cpuacct,memory,devices,cpu,freezer,blkio  0 0

Note: You will need to download a newer version of libvirt 0.8.8.


 * Download the current natty UEC image.
 * In order to use LXC in nova you have to add "--libvirt_type=lxc" to your config.

Bundle your image as you normally would:

euca-bundle-image -i natty-amd64.img euca-upload-bundle -b mybucket -m /tmp/natty-amd76.img euca-register mybucket/natty-amd64.img.manifest.xml
