LXD Support

Information on how LXD can be leveraged and included to create nodes based on LXC containers and images to interface with existing CORE nodes, when needed.

Installation

sudo snap install lxd

Configuration

Initialize LXD and say no to adding a default bridge.

sudo lxd init

Group Setup

To use LXC nodes within the python GUI, you will need to make sure the user running the GUI is a member of the lxd group.

# add group if does not exist
sudo groupadd lxd

# add user to group
sudo usermod -aG lxd $USER

# to get this change to take effect, log out and back in or run the following
newgrp lxd

Tools and Versions Tested With

LXD 3.14
nsenter from util-linux 2.31.1

Examples

This directory provides a few small examples creating LXC nodes using LXD and linking them to themselves or with standard CORE nodes.
