LXC-START(1)							  LXC-START(1)

NAME
       lxc-start - run an application inside a container.

SYNOPSIS
       lxc-start  -n  name  [ -f config_file ] [ -c console_file ] [ -d ] [ -s
       KEY=VAL ] [ -C ] [ command ]

DESCRIPTION
       lxc-start runs the specified command inside the container specified  by
       name.

       It  will	 setup the container according to the configuration previously
       defined with the lxc-create command  or	with  the  configuration  file
       parameter.   If	no  configuration is defined, the default isolation is
       used.

       The orphan process group and daemon are not supported by this  command,
       use the lxc-execute command instead.

       If no command is specified, lxc-start will use the default "/sbin/init"
       command to run a system container.

OPTIONS
	  -d, --daemon
	      Run the container as a daemon. As the container has no more tty,
	      if  an  error occurs nothing will be displayed, the log file can
	      be used to check the error.

	  -f, --rcfile config_file
	      Specify the configuration file to configure  the	virtualization
	      and isolation functionalities for the container.

	      This configuration file if present will be used even if there is
	      already a configuration file present in the  previously  created
	      container (via lxc-create).

	  -c, --console console_file
	      Specify a file to output the container console. If the option is
	      not specified the output will go the terminal except if  the  -d
	      is specified.

	  -s, --define KEY=VAL
	      Assign  value  VAL to configuration variable KEY. This overrides
	      any assignment done in config_file.

	  -C, --close-all-fds
	      If any file descriptors are  inherited,  close  them.   If  this
	      option  is  not specified, then lxc-start will exit with failure
	      instead. Note: --daemon implies --close-all-fds.

COMMON OPTIONS
       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

       -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.

       -n, --name=NAME
	      Use container identifier NAME.  The container identifier	format
	      is an alphanumeric string.

DIAGNOSTIC
       The container is busy
	      The  specified  container is already running an application. You
	      should stop it before reuse this container or create a new one.
