https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=288535 Bug ID: 288535 Summary: jail_list variable not mentioned in Jails section of Handbook Product: Documentation Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: Books & Articles Assignee: doc@FreeBSD.org Reporter: jsmith@resonatingmedia.com The Handbook second on jails (https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/jails/) mentions that to enable automatic start-up of jails, the user should run sysrc jail_enable="YES" sysrc jail_parallel_start="YES" (Or put the equivalent variables in /etc/rc.conf) The Handbook omits that for jails to be started the jail_list variable also needs to be set. Which could be an empty string (in FreeBSD 14.x), but which needs to explicitly list all jail names when running FreeBSD 13.x. There should be a comment added to the Handbook to indicate the jail_list variable needs to be set to automate starting jails. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.home | help
