Standard devices
LXD provides each instance with the basic devices that are required for a standard POSIX system to work. These devices aren't visible in the instance or profile configuration, and they may not be overridden.
The standard devices are:
Device | Type of device |
---|---|
/dev/null | Character device |
/dev/zero | Character device |
/dev/full | Character device |
/dev/console | Character device |
/dev/tty | Character device |
/dev/random | Character device |
/dev/urandom | Character device |
/dev/net/tun | Character device |
/dev/fuse | Character device |
lo | Network interface |
Any other devices must be defined in the instance configuration or in one of the profiles used by the instance. The default profile typically contains a network interface that becomes eth0
in the instance.
