Ubuntu – LXC (Linux Containers)

Loading

LXC (Linux Containers) 是一種作業系統層的虛擬化技術 (Operating system–level virtualization),也就是 LXC 不需要 Hypervisor 這一軟體層.聽起來很模糊,先來用用看吧!!

測試環境為 Ubuntu14.04 ,安裝完 lxc 套件確定一下狀態就可以直接用了.

root@ubuntu:~# apt-get install lxc
root@ubuntu:~# lxc-checkconfig

LXC 支援的作業系統

LXC 的虛擬化並不像是 VMware , VirtualBox 透過 Hypervisor 產生一個虛擬的硬體出來,有 Hypervisor 這種虛擬化的好處就是連不同平台的作業系統都可以模擬出來,如 Linux 下的環境可以虛擬出 Windows . 但缺點就是太耗系統資源. 關於 LXC 虛擬化可以參考 https://benjr.tw/95955
但其實使用 Linux 的使用者並沒有太大使用 Windows 的需求.也因此 LXC 這一類的虛擬化就開始大量被應用了,這一類對於虛擬出來的系統叫做 Containers (非虛擬機之類的),因為與主系統共用資源,所以大概能虛擬的作業系統也就是跟 Linux 相關的.在 Ubuntu 下可以檢查檔案 /usr/share/lxc/templates 所列出支援的作業系統有哪一些.

新增 Container

來試試看新增一個新的 Container (Ubuntu)

# The default user is 'ubuntu' with password 'ubuntu'!
# Use the 'sudo' command to run tasks as root in the container.

  • -t template
    哪一些 template 可以用,就是剛剛有提到的檔案 /usr/share/lxc/templates 所列出是有支援的作業系統.
  • -n, –name=NAME
    幫這一個 Container 取一個名稱.

第一次會很花時間在下載所需的檔案,第二次會直接檢查 /var/cache/lxc/trusty/rootfs-i386/ 直接取用.Ubuntu Container ( ubuntu-1 ) 已經建立好了,安裝的最後面有提示使用者名稱與密碼皆為 ubuntu .

恩!那我們建立了哪一些 Container 呢!可以透過 tree 指令.

root@ubuntu:~# tree -L 2 /var/lib/lxc/
/var/lib/lxc/
├── ubuntu-1
│   ├── config
│   ├── fstab
│   └── rootfs
└── ubuntu-2
    ├── config
    ├── fstab
    └── rootfs

4 directories, 4 files

tree – list contents of directories in a tree-like format.

  • -L level
    Max display depth of the directory tree.

限制 Container 資源

剛剛建立 container 發生得太快,沒有像是 vmware , virtualbox 那樣要設定 CPU ,記憶體 , 儲存空間 多大 ,網路…
透過 tree -L 2 /var/lib/lxc/ 有看到 config container 的設定檔的位置,來看一下.

root@ubuntu:~# cat /var/lib/lxc/ubuntu-1/config 
# Template used to create this container: /usr/share/lxc/templates/lxc-ubuntu
# Parameters passed to the template:
# For additional config options, please look at lxc.container.conf(5)

# Common configuration
lxc.include = /usr/share/lxc/config/ubuntu.common.conf

# Container specific configuration
lxc.rootfs = /var/lib/lxc/ubuntu-1/rootfs
lxc.mount = /var/lib/lxc/ubuntu-1/fstab
lxc.utsname = ubuntu-1
lxc.arch = i686

# Network configuration
lxc.network.type = veth
lxc.network.flags = up
lxc.network.link = lxcbr0
lxc.network.hwaddr = 00:16:3e:56:98:f9

Container 跟主系統共用資源,我們還是可以透過設定檔以及 lxc-cgroup (manage the control group associated with a container) 來限制 Container 的 CPU ,記憶體 ,儲存空間 以及網路.
CPU
cpuset.cpus 使用的核心, cpu.shares ??

root@ubuntu:~# lxc-cgroup -n ubuntu-1 cpuset.cpus
0-3
root@ubuntu:~# lxc-cgroup -n ubuntu-1 cpu.shares
1024

Memory

root@ubuntu:~# lxc-cgroup -n ubuntu-1 memory.limit_in_bytes
18446744073709551615
root@ubuntu:~# lxc-cgroup -n ubuntu-1 memory.limit_in_bytes 256M
root@ubuntu:~# lxc-cgroup -n ubuntu-1 memory.limit_in_bytes 
268435456

或是寫到 Container 的設定檔 /var/lib/lxc/ubuntu-1/config

lxc.cgroup.memory.limit_in_bytes = 256M

其他哪一些可以做限制需要參考 LXC 網站說明. https://linuxcontainers.org/lxc/manpages/man5/lxc.container.conf.5.html

啟動 container 並登入

root@ubuntu:~# lxc-start -n ubuntu-1
root@ubuntu:~# lxc-start -n ubuntu-1 
<4>init: plymouth-upstart-bridge main process (5) terminated with status 1
<4>init: plymouth-upstart-bridge main process ended, respawning
<4>init: hwclock main process (7) terminated with status 77
<4>init: ureadahead main process (8) terminated with status 5
<4>init: plymouth-upstart-bridge main process (15) terminated with status 1
<4>init: plymouth-upstart-bridge main process ended, respawning
 * Starting Mount filesystems on boot   ...done.
 * Stopping Send an event to indicate plymouth is up   ...done.
 * Starting Signal sysvinit that the rootfs is mounted   ...done.
....

Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS ubuntu-1 console

ubuntu-1 login: <4>init: setvtrgb main process (426) terminated with status 1
<4>init: plymouth-upstart-bridge main process ended, respawning


Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS ubuntu-1 console

ubuntu-1 login: 

啟動 container

root@ubuntu:~# lxc-start -n ubuntu-1 -d

事後要登入 container

root@ubuntu:~# lxc-console -n ubuntu-1

container 關機

直接在 Container 裡面下指令關閉 或是透過 #lxc-stop

ubuntu@ubuntu-1:~$ sudo shutdown -h now
[sudo] password for ubuntu:
root@ubuntu:~# lxc-stop -n ubuntu-1

其他指令

複製 (clone) Container

該 Container 需處於關機狀態才能進行複製.

root@ubuntu:~# lxc-clone -o ubuntu-1 -n ubuntu-clone
lxc_container: lxccontainer.c: lxcapi_clone: 2635 error: Original container (ubuntu-1) is running
clone failed
root@ubuntu:~# lxc-clone -o ubuntu-1 -n ubuntu-clone
Created container ubuntu-clone as copy of ubuntu-1
root@ubuntu:~# tree -L 2 /var/lib/lxc/
/var/lib/lxc/
├── ubuntu-1
│   ├── config
│   ├── fstab
│   └── rootfs
├── ubuntu-2
│   ├── config
│   ├── fstab
│   └── rootfs
└── ubuntu-clone
    ├── config
    ├── fstab
    └── rootfs

6 directories, 6 files

刪除 (destroy) Container

root@ubuntu:~# lxc-destroy -n ubuntu-clone
root@ubuntu:~# tree -L 2 /var/lib/lxc/
/var/lib/lxc/
├── ubuntu-1
│   ├── config
│   ├── fstab
│   └── rootfs
└── ubuntu-2
    ├── config
    ├── fstab
    └── rootfs

4 directories, 4 files
