NAME
lxc-update-config - update a legacy pre LXC 2.1 configuration
file
SYNOPSIS
lxc-update-config {-c config}
DESCRIPTION
lxc-update-config detects any legacy configuration keys in the
given config file and will replace them with the appropriate new
configuration keys.
lxc-update-config will first create a backup of the old config
file in the same directory and name it config.backup and then up‐
date the original config file in place. In case the update fails
to apply or leads to an invalid config file that cannot be used
to start a container users can either compare config with con‐
fig.backup and try to manually repair any the invalid configura‐
tion keys or simply rollback to the legacy configuration file by
copying config.backup to config.
Any failures for lxc-update-config to generate a useable config
file are a bug and should be reported upstream.
OPTIONS
-c, --config
Path to the configuration file to update.
-h, --help
