debops.lxc

Linux Containers or LXC provide a way to partition existing Linux hosts into separate environments using Linux cgroups, namespace isolation, POSIX capabilities and chrooted filesystems.

The debops.lxc Ansible role can be used to configure LXC support on a Debian/Ubuntu host. It can manage configuration files in /etc/lxc/ directory and provide custom scripts that allow, for example, initial bootstrapping of the user's SSH public keys inside of the container so that it can be managed remotely with Ansible.
