NAME
       lxc-monitor - monitor the container state

SYNOPSIS
       lxc-monitor [ -n name ]	[ -Q name ]

DESCRIPTION
       lxc-monitor  monitors the state of containers. The name argument may be
       used to specify which containers to monitor. It is  a  regular  expres‐
       sion, conforming with posix2, so it is possible to monitor all the con‐
       tainers, several of them or just	 one.  If  not	specified,  name  will
       default to '.*' which will monitor all containers in lxcpath.

       The  -P, --lxcpath=PATH option may be specified multiple times to moni‐
       tor more than one container path. Note however that containers with the
       same name in multiple paths will be indistinguishable in the output.

OPTIONS
       -Q, --quit
	      Ask the lxc-monitord daemon on each given lxcpath to quit. After
	      receiving this command, lxc-monitord will	 exit  immediately  as
	      soon  as it has no clients instead of waiting the normal 30 sec‐
	      onds for new clients. This is useful if you need to unmount  the
	      filesystem lxcpath is on.

COMMON OPTIONS
       These options are common to most of lxc commands.

       -?, -h, --help
	      Print a longer usage message than normal.

       --usage
	      Give the usage message

       -q, --quiet
	      mute on

       -P, --lxcpath=PATH
	      Use an alternate container path. The default is /container.

       -o, --logfile=FILE
	      Output to an alternate log FILE. The default is no log.

       -l, --logpriority=LEVEL
	      Set  log	priority  to LEVEL. The default log priority is ERROR.
	      Possible values are : FATAL, CRIT, WARN,	ERROR,	NOTICE,	 INFO,
	      DEBUG.

	      Note  that this option is setting the priority of the events log
	      in the alternate log file. It do not have effect	on  the	 ERROR
	      events log on stderr.

       -n, --name=NAME
	      Use  container identifier NAME.  The container identifier format
	      is an alphanumeric string.

EXAMPLES
       lxc-monitor -n foo
	      will monitor the different states for container foo.

       lxc-monitor -n 'foo|bar'
	      will monitor the different states for container foo and bar.

       lxc-monitor -n '[f|b].*'
	      will monitor the different states for container  with  the  name
	      beginning with letter 'f' or 'b'.

       lxc-monitor -n '.*'
	      will monitor the different states for all containers.

DIAGNOSTIC
       The container was not found
	      The specified container was not created before with the lxc-cre‐
	      ate command.
