🌸 LXD-MIGRATE(1) — the physical-to-instance glow-up tool 🌸

okay bestie, welcome to the LXD-MIGRATE(1) girlies' user-commands manual, section 1, and no cap this one is a banger 💅

✨ NAME ✨

lxd-migrate — the LXD physical to instance migration tool 🧚

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

🦋 Description:

Physical to instance migration tool — yeah, that's literally the whole vibe.

This tool lets you turn any Linux filesystem (including the one you're using right now, bestie, yes even that one 😭) into a LXD instance on a remote LXD host. it's giving glow-up, it's giving main character energy ✨

It will setup a clean mount tree made of the root filesystem and any additional mount you list, then transfer this through LXD's migration API to create a new instance from it. lowkey iconic behavior fr fr 🫶

The same set of options as lxc launch are also supported. slay 👑

🎀 Usage:

lxd-migrate [flags]

👑 Flags:

  • -h, --help — Print help 💜 (yes, it tells you what to do, communication queen)
  • --rsync-args — Extra arguments to pass to rsync 🔥 (you get to hand rsync your own little extras, as a treat)
  • --version — Print version number ⭐ (for when you simply must know which girl you're dealing with)
💀 heads up bestie: that's genuinely every single flag listed. no hidden extras, no secret menu, no cap. don't go inventing options that aren't there, the tool will NOT eat that up.

and that's the whole page, gorgeous. go migrate something. periodt. 🎀✨

this was lxd-migrate 5.0.2+git20231211.1..., dated June 2026 — mwah, kiss the manual goodbye 💋🌈
