You mean in the commit log, or on the list ? Basically, what i am doing is the following : Here is the unit file ( copy from nginx, as I cannot include it sine ExecStart cannot be replaced ) : [Unit] Description=Test of a specific nginx running in lxc After=syslog.target network.target remote-fs.target nss-lookup.target [Service] PIDFile=/run/nginx.%i.pid ExecStartPre=/usr/sbin/nginx -t -c /etc/nginx/nginx.%i.conf ExecStart=/usr/sbin/nginx -c /etc/nginx/nginx.%i.conf Type=forking ExecReload=/bin/kill -s HUP $MAINPID ExecStop=/bin/kill -s QUIT $MAINPID PrivateTmp=true [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target And to run it : # virt-sandbox-service create -u nginx_lxc@ test.example.org --package nginx So this create a container using /etc/nginx.test.example.org.conf as a configuration file, with the unit being linked and properly templated ( http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/instances.html ). If that's enough explanation, I will write something in the commit log, and also add some documentation as I totally forgot about it.
