NAME¶
lxc-kill - Send a signal to the process 1 of the container.
SYNOPSIS¶
lxc-kill --name=NAME SIGNUM
DESCRIPTION¶
lxc-kill send the
SIGNUM signal to the first process of the
container.
The
SIGNUM is a numeric value, the signal name is not supported.
If this command is used on an application container ran by lxc-execute, the
lxc-init will receive the signal and will forward it to the process 2 which is
the command specified in the command line. See lxc-execute (1). Obviously the
SIGKILL and SIGSTOP signals are not able to be forwarded, (as per the
signal(7) man page).

These options are common to most of lxc commands.
- -?, -h, --help

- --usage

- -q, --quiet

- -o, --logfile=FILE

stderr.
