libvirt users - Jul 2014 - Re: How to get uuid info inside a lxc container created by libvirt_lxc

Hi ,

Is there anyway to get uuid info inside a lxc container which is created
by libvirt_lxc?

For kvm, we can use dmidecode or lshw to get this info inside vm. Is
there any tools
to do this thing for libvirt lxc?

Thanks for any help~

Per the docs:
http://libvirt.org/drvlxc.html#envvars
pid 1 inside lxc inherits $container_uuid into its environment variables.

Thanks for help.
But in my lxc container, It seems no such envvars existed:

The version of libvirt I used is 1.1.4.
Do this libvirt version support the lxc envvars feature?
