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 one of the available tty devices. By setting cmode to 'console' it tries to attach to /dev/console instead. If you set cmode to 'shell', it simply invokes a shell inside the container (no login).
8
9 `console`: `boolean` (default=`1`)::
10
11 Attach a console device (/dev/console) to the container.
12
13 `cpulimit`: `number (0 - 128)` (default=`0`)::
14
15 Limit of CPU usage.
16 +
17 NOTE: If the computer has 2 CPUs, it has a total of '2' CPU time. Value '0' indicates no CPU limit.
18
19 `cpuunits`: `integer (0 - 500000)` (default=`1024`)::
20
21 CPU weight for a VM. Argument is used in the kernel fair scheduler. The larger the number is, the more CPU time this VM gets. Number is relative to the weights of all the other running VMs.
22 +
23 NOTE: You can disable fair-scheduler configuration by setting this to 0.
24

73 Volume, device or directory to mount into the container.
74
75 `nameserver`: `string` ::
76
77 Sets DNS server IP address for a container. Create will automatically use the setting from the host if you neither set searchdomain nor nameserver.
78
79 `net[n]`: `name=<string> [,bridge=<bridge>] [,firewall=<1|0>] [,gw=<GatewayIPv4>] [,gw6=<GatewayIPv6>] [,hwaddr=<XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX>] [,ip=<IPv4Format/CIDR>] [,ip6=<IPv6Format/CIDR>] [,mtu=<integer>] [,rate=<mbps>] [,tag=<integer>] [,trunks=<vlanid[;vlanid...]>] [,type=<veth>]` ::

96
97 Default gateway for IPv6 traffic.
98
99 `hwaddr`=`<XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX>` ;;

176
177 Startup and shutdown behavior. Order is a non-negative number defining the general startup order. Shutdown in done with reverse ordering. Additionally you can set the 'up' or 'down' delay in seconds, which specifies a delay to wait before the next VM is started or stopped.
