Summary of CLI¶
- to create a Linux VM for your containers
The machine description is a text file that describes the attributes of the VM that it will create.
- Start the VM
The ignition file is injected into the VM during this first boot and then run in the boot process.
The gvproxy application manages port mapping between the host and VM. The VM routes its traffic through the host system. Once the image is pulled successfully, the container runs on the VM.
Major issues¶
