Hey Qiu Yu,<br><br>I am a beginner to both lxc and openstack swift. Can you please clarify some of my doubts related to openstack swift and lxc?<br><br><br>1. I want to set up a small cloud storage environment in my laptop. I mean i need to host storage services for some clients and i want to virtualize this environment. Is openstack swift enough for the above purpose or should i install nova, glance and swift?<br>

<div><br></div><div>I&#39;m not quite sure what kind of issue could possibly cause this console access issue. Cause I&#39;m now using two different guest OS templates on two different host OSes. Following are some symptoms I observed.</div>




<div><blockquote style="margin:0 0 0 40px;border:none;padding:0px"><div><br></div><div>* (g) for container guest OS</div><div>* (h) for host OS</div><div>* NOTE: Ubuntu guest os are generated by lxc-create -t ubuntu, which is an Ubuntu 12.04 based lxc template.</div>




<div>             CentOS guest os are handcrafted by myself, taking reference of <a href="http://wiki.1tux.org/wiki/Lxc/Installation/Guest/Centos/6" target="_blank">http://wiki.1tux.org/wiki/Lxc/Installation/Guest/Centos/6</a></div>


<div>

<ol><li>Ubuntu (g) launched by lxc-start on Ubuntu 12.04 host, console works</li><li>Ubuntu (g) launched by OpenStack / libvirt on Ubuntu 12.04 host, console works</li><li>Ubuntu (g) launched by OpenStack / libvirt on CentOS 6.3 host, console NOT works</li>




<li>CentOS (g) launched by lxc-start on Ubuntu 12.04 host, console works</li><li>CentOS (g) launched by OpenStack / libvirt on Ubuntu12.04 host, console NOT works</li><li>CentOS (g) launched by OpenStack / libvirt on CentOS 6.3 host, console NOT works</li>




</ol></div></blockquote></div><div>So somehow I feel it could be something related to LXC template rootfs, but Host OS do make a difference (2 vs. 3). lxc-start / libvirt also makes a difference (4 vs. 5), but that might be caused by cgroup setting.</div>




<div><br></div><div>Could someone shed me some clues to further digging this issue? Thanks!  </div><div><br></div><div>--<br>Qiu Yu<br>
