NAME

6       lxc-update-config - update a legacy pre LXC 2.1 configuration file
7

SYNOPSIS

9       lxc-update-config {-c config}
10

DESCRIPTION

12       lxc-update-config  detects  any  legacy configuration keys in the given
13       config file and will replace them with the appropriate  new  configura‐
14       tion keys.
15
16       lxc-update-config  will first create a backup of the old config file in
17       the same directory and name it config.backup and then update the origi‐
18       nal config file in place. In case the update fails to apply or leads to
19       an invalid config file that cannot be used to start a  container  users
20       can either compare config with config.backup and try to manually repair
21       any the invalid configuration keys or simply  rollback  to  the  legacy
22       configuration file by copying config.backup to config.
23
24       Any  failures  for  lxc-update-config to generate a useable config file
25       are a bug and should be reported upstream.
