lxc continued

Let us create virtual machine of your choice. Suppose that you would like to create an instance of ubuntu. (Please do not ask me reason why I need to run ubuntu on unbutu :-)).

$ sudo lxc-create -t ubuntu -n ubuntu01

As this command execution will download files, therefore first time execution may take time. So please wait for a while, say, by drinking coffee.

After successful execution, you will have an ubuntu instance named “ubuntu01”.

Ok, let us start lxc as daemon.

$ sudo lxc-start -n ubuntu01 -d

According to dhcp server (dnsmasq), 10.0.3.198 may have been leased.

$ cat /var/lib/misc/dnsmasq.lxcbr0.leases
1379835957 00:16:3e:08:50:7f 10.0.3.198 ubuntu01 *

Let us login via ssh. Default uid/password combination is ubuntu/ubuntu.

$ ssh -l ubuntu 10.0.3.198

Ok, network plan would be like this.
