# Overview
LXD is a hypervisor for managing Linux Containers; it provides a simple RESTful API for creation and management of containers.
LXD is a hypervisor for managing Linux Containers; it provides a simple RESTful API for creation and management of containers. This charm is currently specific to LXD's use with nova-lxd, but that's only by usage, rather than specific design.
# Usage
# Usage with nova-compute and nova-lxd
The lxd charm can be used in-conjunction with any principle charm to setup and enable use of LXD; its primary use case is with the nova-compute charm to enable LXD based OpenStack Clouds:
While the lxd charm can be used with any charm to enable use of LXD, its primary use is
with the nova-compute Openstack charm, for provisioning LXD based OpenStack Nova
instances.
juju deploy cs:~openstack-charmers-next/wily/nova-compute
For example:
juju deploy nova-compute
juju set nova-compute virt-type=lxd
juju deploy cs:~openstack-charmers-next/wily/lxd
juju deploy lxd
juju set lxd block-devices=/dev/sdb storage-type=lvm
juju add-relation lxd nova-compute
At this point in time, LXD is only supported on Ubuntu 15.10 or above, in-conjunction with OpenStack Liberty (provided as part of Ubuntu 15.10).
The caveat is that nova-compute is part of a greater ecosystem of many OpenStack service
charms. For a full OpenStack Mitaka deployment using LXD, please
refer to the [OpenStack LXD](https://jujucharms.com/u/openstack-charmers-next/openstack-lxd) bundle.
For a full OpenStack Liberty deployment using LXD, please refer to the [OpenStack LXD](https://jujucharms.com/u/openstack-charmers-next/openstack-lxd) bundle.
At this time, nova-lxd is only supported on Ubuntu 16.04 or above, with OpenStack Mitaka
(provided as part of Ubuntu 16.04).
