runc-create(8)              System Manager's Manual             runc-create(8)



NAME
       runc-create - create a container



SYNOPSIS
       runc create [option ...] container-id



DESCRIPTION
       The create command creates an instance of a container from a bundle.
       The bundle is a directory with a specification file named config.json,
       and a root filesystem.



OPTIONS
       --bundle|-b path
              Path to the root of the bundle directory. Default is current
              directory.


       --console-socket path
              Path to an AF_UNIX  socket which will receive a file descriptor
              referencing the master end of the console's pseudoterminal.  See
              docs/terminals
              <https://github.com/opencontainers/runc/blob/master/docs/terminals.md>.


       --pid-file path
              Specify the file to write the initial container process' PID to.


       --no-pivot
              Do not use pivot root to jail process inside rootfs. This should
              not be used except in exceptional circumstances, and may be
              unsafe from the security standpoint.


       --no-new-keyring
              Do not create a new session keyring for the container. This will
              cause the container to inherit the calling processes session
              key.


       --preserve-fds N
              Pass N additional file descriptors to the container (stdio +
              $LISTEN_FDS + N in total). Default is 0.
