2 Apr 2021 Hello Friends:

I have Fedora-33 x86_64 running as my bare-metal O/S, and also have Fedora-33 x86_64 running as my LXC (not LXD) container (lxc01). lxc01 is running with systemd, and with /sbin/init as process ID 1 (so nothing esoteric there).

When I run Fedoras podman(1) command (i.e RedHat’s improvement to docker), the output suggests that lxc01 may not be booted optimally. Meaning that perhaps (I’m speculating) something in it’s /var/lib/lxc/lxc01/config file needs adjusting.

Both Fedora and LXC versions have been updated since I last tweaked that file, so maybe some parameters need updating now.

Looking at the below diagnostic message, does anyone have an idea what config parameter(s), if any, might need updating? Or whatever else?

Thank you in advance!

Answer: Just as the following to this file, creating it if necessary: ${HOME}/.config/containers/containers.conf: [engine] events_logger = “file” cgroup_manager = “cgroupfs”
