.. index:: Advance Usage
.. _Advanced Usage:

Advanced Usage
==============

.. index:: Clones
.. _Clones:

Clones
------

When a jail is cloned, iocage creates a ZFS clone filesystem.
Essentially, clones are cheap, lightweight, and writable snapshots.

A clone depends on its source snapshot and filesystem. To destroy the
source jail and preserve its clones, the clone must be promoted first.

.. index:: Create clones
.. _Create a Clone:

Create a Clone
++++++++++++++

To clone **www01** to **www02**, run:

:samp:`# iocage clone www01 --name www02`

Clone a jail from an existing snapshot with:

:samp:`# iocage clone www01@snapshotname --name www03`

.. index:: Promote a Clone
.. _Promoting a Clone:

Promoting a Clone
+++++++++++++++++

.. warning:: This functionality isn't fully added to iocage, and may not
function as expected.

**To promote a cloned jail, run:**

:command:`iocage promote [UUID | NAME]`

This reverses the *clone* and *source* jail relationship. The clone
becomes the source and the source jail is demoted to a clone.

**The demoted jail can now be removed:**

:command:`iocage destroy [UUID | NAME]`

.. index:: Updating Jails
.. _Updating Jails:

Updating Jails
--------------

Updates are handled with the freebsd-update(8) utility. Jails can be
updated while they are stopped or running.

.. note:: The command :command:`iocage update [UUID | NAME]`
automatically creates a backup snapshot of the jail given.

To create a backup snapshot manually, run:

:command:`iocage snapshot -n [snapshotname] [UUID | NAME]`

To update a jail to latest patch level, run:

:command:`iocage update [UUID | NAME]`

When updates are finished and the jail appears to function properly,
remove the snapshot:

:command:`iocage snapremove [UUID|NAME]@[snapshotname]`

To test updating without affecting a jail, create a clone and update the
clone the same way as outlined above.

To clone a jail, run:

:command:`iocage clone [UUID|NAME] --name [testupdate]`

.. note:: The **[-n | --name]** flag is optional. :command:`iocage`
assigns an UUID to the jail if **[-n | --name]** is not used.

.. index:: Upgrade Jails
.. _Upgrading Jails:

Upgrading Jails
---------------

Upgrades are handled with the freebsd-update(8) utility. By default, the
user must supply the new RELEASE for the jail's upgrade. For example:

:samp:`# iocage upgrade examplejail -r 11.0-RELEASE`

Tells jail *examplejail* to upgrade its RELEASE to *11.0-RELEASE*.

.. note:: It is recommended to keep the iocage host and jails RELEASE
synchronized.

To upgrade a jail to the host's RELEASE, run:

:command:`iocage upgrade -r [11.1-RELEASE] [UUID | NAME]`

This upgrades the jail to the same RELEASE as the host. This method also
applies to basejails.

.. index:: Auto-Boot
.. _AutoBoot:

Auto-boot
---------

Make sure :command:`iocage_enable="YES"` is set in :file:`/etc/rc.conf`.

To enable a jail to auto-boot during a system boot, simply run:

:samp:`# iocage set boot=on UUID|NAME`

.. note:: Setting :command:`boot=on` during jail creation starts the
jail after the jail is created.

.. index:: Boot Priority
.. _Boot Priority:

Boot Priority
+++++++++++++

Boot order can be specified by setting the priority value:

:command:`iocage set priority=[20] [UUID|NAME]`

*Lower* values are higher in the boot priority.

.. index:: Depends Property
.. _Depends Property:

Depends Property
++++++++++++++++

Use the :literal:`depends` property to require other jails to start
before this one. It is space delimited. Jails listed as dependents
also wait to start if those jails have listed :literal:`depends`.

Example: :command:`iocage set depends=“foo bar” baz`

.. index:: Snapshot Management
.. _Snapshot Management:

Snapshot Management
-------------------

iocage supports transparent ZFS snapshot management out of the box.
Snapshots are point-in-time copies of data, a safety point to which a
jail can be reverted at any time. Initially, snapshots take up almost no
space, as only changing data is recorded.

You may use **ALL** as a target jail name for these commands if you want to target all jails at once.

List snapshots for a jail:

:command:`iocage snaplist [UUID|NAME]`

Create a new snapshot:

:command:`iocage snapshot [UUID|NAME]`

This creates a snapshot based on the current time.

:command:`iocage snapshot [UUID|NAME] -n [SNAPSHOT NAME]`

This creates a snapshot with the given name.

Delete a snapshot:

:command:`iocage snapremove [UUID|NAME] -n [SNAPSHOT NAME]`

Delete all snapshots from a jail (requires `-f / --force`):

:command:`iocage snapremove [UUID|NAME] -n ALL -f`

.. index:: Resource Limits
.. _Resource Limits:

Resource Limits (Legacy ONLY)
-----------------------------

.. warning:: This functionality is only available for legacy versions of
:command:`iocage`. It is not yet implemented in the current version.
This applies to all subsections of *Resource Limits*.

:command:`iocage` can enable optional resource limits for a jail. The
outlined procedure here is meant to provide a starting point for the
user.

.. index:: Limit Cores or Threads
.. _Limit Cores or Threads:

Limit Cores or Threads
++++++++++++++++++++++

Limit a jail to a single thread or core #1:

:command:`iocage set cpuset=1 [UUID|TAG]`
:command:`iocage start [UUID|TAG]`

.. index:: List Applied Rules
.. _List Applied Rules:

List Applied Limits
+++++++++++++++++++

List applied limits:

:command:`iocage limits [UUID|TAG]`

.. index:: Limit DRAM Usage
.. _Limit DRAM Usage:

Limit DRAM use
++++++++++++++

This example limits a jail to using 4 Gb DRAM memory (limiting RSS
memory use can be done on-the-fly):

:samp:`# iocage set memoryuse=4G:deny examplejail`

.. index:: Turn on Resource Limits
.. _Turn on Resource Limits:

Turn on Resource Limits
+++++++++++++++++++++++

Turn on resource limiting for a jail with:

:command:`iocage set rlimits=on [UUID|TAG]`

.. index:: Apply Limits
.. _Apply Limits:

Apply limits
++++++++++++

Apply limits to a running jail with:

:command:`iocage cap [UUID | TAG]`

.. index:: Check Limits
.. _Check Limits:

Check Limits
++++++++++++

Check the currently active limits on a jail with:

:command:`iocage limits [UUID | TAG]`

.. index:: Limit CPU Usage by Percentage
.. _Limit CPU Usage by Percentage:

Limit CPU Usage by %
++++++++++++++++++++

In this example, :command:`iocage` limits *testjail* CPU execution to
20%, then applies the limitation to the active jail:

:samp:`# iocage set pcpu=20:deny testjail`
:samp:`# iocage cap testjail`

Double check the jail's current limits to confirm the functionality:

:samp:`# iocage limits testjail`

.. index:: Automatic Package Installation
.. _Automatic Package Installation:

Automatic Package Installation
------------------------------

Packages can be installed automatically at creation time!

Use the [-p | --pkglist] option at creation time, which needs to point
to a JSON file containing one package name per line.

.. note:: An Internet connection is required for automatic package
installations, as :command:`pkg install` obtains packages from online
repositories.

Create a :file:`pkgs.json` file and add package names to it.

:file:`pkgs.json`:

.. code-block:: json
{
"pkgs": [
"nginx",
"tmux"
]
}
Now, create a jail and supply :file:`pkgs.json`:

:command:`iocage create -r [RELEASE] -p [path-to/pkgs.json] -n [NAME]`

.. note:: The **[-n | --name]** flag is optional. :command:`iocage`
assigns an UUID to the jail if **[-n | --name]** is not used.

This installs **nginx** and **tmux** in the newly created jail.
