The container and host can link journals giving operators the ability to log stream and check on the health of a system without needing to login (attach) to the container. This change implements journal linking for LXC containers following the reference systemd specification. Reference implementation: https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd-nspawn.html#--link-journal= Change-Id: Id68cf39a77b5dd9c13c010829b47cd7a414378bc Signed-off-by: Kevin Carter <kevin.carter@rackspace.com>

features:
|
|
- In a greenfield deployment containers will now bind link
|
|
their journals to the physical host machine in the
|
|
``/var/log/journal/{{ machine_id }}`` location. During an
|
|
upgrade this change will be added to the container config but
|
|
will not go into effect until the container is restarted.
|
|
Because the restart is not forced the operator can perform
|
|
restarts to best suit the needs of their environment.
|
|
Journal linking provides operators the ability to log stream
|
|
and health check containerized systems without having to
|
|
attach or otherwise login. If this feature is not needed or
|
|
desired it can be disabled by setting the option
|
|
``lxc_container_journal_link`` to *false*.
