From 6285545a2448a21a29951b1885f62e5d88bfe5f9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Philip Brown Date: Thu, 20 Dec 2018 21:46:01 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] Add note about need for lxd init (#11822) * Add note about need for lxd init As a first time user, I got a little lost, doing google searches for how to get lxd basically functional on my box. There were a lot of hand edits and tweaks suggested on various pages, until I discovered that all I had to do is run "lxd init" and follow the prompts. * Update local.md --- content/en/docs/getting-started-guides/ubuntu/local.md | 9 +++++++++ 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+) diff --git a/content/en/docs/getting-started-guides/ubuntu/local.md b/content/en/docs/getting-started-guides/ubuntu/local.md index b8aaaf9d5d..49e5e64f74 100644 --- a/content/en/docs/getting-started-guides/ubuntu/local.md +++ b/content/en/docs/getting-started-guides/ubuntu/local.md @@ -18,6 +18,15 @@ sudo snap install conjure-up --classic sudo usermod -a -G lxd $(whoami) ``` +If you have never run or configured lxd before, you will need to run the following +command to set up the default storage pool and the network bridge required: + +``` +sudo lxd init +``` + +If a bridge named `lxdbr0` already exists, you can tell the init config tool to use it. + Note: If conjure-up asks you to "Setup an IPv6 subnet" with LXD, answer NO.
