1 `arch`: `(amd64 | i386)` (default=`amd64`)::
2
3 OS architecture type.
4
5 `cmode`: `(console | shell | tty)` (default=`tty`)::
6
7 Console mode. By default, the console command tries to open a connection to
8 one of the available tty devices. By setting cmode to 'console' it tries to
9 attach to /dev/console instead. If you set cmode to 'shell', it simply
10 invokes a shell inside the container (no login).
11
12 `console`: `boolean` (default=`1`)::
13
14 Attach a console device (/dev/console) to the container.
15
16 `cpulimit`: `number (0 - 128)` (default=`0`)::
17
18 Limit of CPU usage.
19 +
20 NOTE: If the computer has 2 CPUs, it has a total of '2' CPU time. Value '0'
21 indicates no CPU limit.
22
23 `cpuunits`: `integer (0 - 500000)` (default=`1024`)::
24
25 CPU weight for a VM. Argument is used in the kernel fair scheduler. The
26 larger the number is, the more CPU time this VM gets. Number is relative to
27 the weights of all the other running VMs.
28 +
29 NOTE: You can disable fair-scheduler configuration by setting this to 0.
30
31 `description`: `string` ::
32
33 Container description. Only used on the configuration web interface.
34
35 `hostname`: `string` ::
36
37 Set a host name for the container.
38
39 `lock`: `(backup | migrate | rollback | snapshot)` ::
40
41 Lock/unlock the VM.
42
43 `memory`: `integer (16 - N)` (default=`512`)::
44
45 Amount of RAM for the VM in MB.
46
47 `mp[n]`: `mp=<Path>, [volume=]<volume> [,acl=<acl>] [,backup=<[1|0]>] [,quota=<[0|1]>] [,ro=<ro>] [,size=<DiskSize>]` ::
48
49 Use volume as container mount point (experimental feature).
50
51 `nameserver`: `string` ::
52
53 Sets DNS server IP address for a container. Create will automatically use
54 the setting from the host if you neither set searchdomain nor nameserver.
55
56 `net[n]`: `name=<String> [,bridge=<vmbr<Number>>] [,firewall=<[1|0]>] [,gw=<GatewayIPv4>] [,gw6=<GatewayIPv6>] [,hwaddr=<MAC>] [,ip=<IPv4Format/CIDR>] [,ip6=<IPv6Format/CIDR>] [,mtu=<Number>] [,rate=<mbps>] [,tag=<VlanNo>] [,trunks=<vlanid[;vlanid...]>] [,type=<veth>]` ::
57
58 Specifies network interfaces for the container.
59
60 `onboot`: `boolean` (default=`0`)::
61
62 Specifies whether a VM will be started during system bootup.
63
64 `ostype`: `(alpine | archlinux | centos | debian | fedora | opensuse | ubuntu | unmanaged)` ::
65
66 OS type. This is used to setup configuration inside the container, and
67 corresponds to lxc setup scripts in
68 /usr/share/lxc/config/<ostype>.common.conf. Value 'unmanaged' can be used
69 to skip and OS specific setup.
70
71 `protection`: `boolean` (default=`0`)::
72
73 Sets the protection flag of the container. This will prevent the CT or CT's
74 disk remove/update operation.
75
76 `rootfs`: `[volume=]<volume> [,acl=<acl>] [,backup=<[1|0]>] [,quota=<[0|1]>] [,ro=<ro>] [,size=<DiskSize>]` ::
77
78 Use volume as container root.
79
80 `searchdomain`: `string` ::
81
82 Sets DNS search domains for a container. Create will automatically use the
83 setting from the host if you neither set searchdomain nor nameserver.
84
85 `startup`: `[[order=]\d+] [,up=\d+] [,down=\d+] ` ::
86
87 Startup and shutdown behavior. Order is a non-negative number defining the
88 general startup order. Shutdown in done with reverse ordering. Additionally
89 you can set the 'up' or 'down' delay in seconds, which specifies a delay to
90 wait before the next VM is started or stopped.
91
92 `swap`: `integer (0 - N)` (default=`512`)::
93
94 Amount of SWAP for the VM in MB.
95
96 `template`: `boolean` (default=`0`)::
97
98 Enable/disable Template.
99
100 `tty`: `integer (0 - 6)` (default=`2`)::
101
102 Specify the number of tty available to the container
103
104 `unprivileged`: `boolean` (default=`0`)::
105
106 Makes the container run as unprivileged user. (Should not be modified
107 manually.)
108
109 `unused[n]`: `string` ::
110
111 Reference to unused volumes.
