It doesn't appear this was brought to the attention of the devs nor an<br>
issue even filed in github. I'd like to make sure I didn't miss<br>
something, so posting here for comment before I submit a github issue.<br>
<br>
In summary, LXC sets up a small number of tty devices by default.<br>
However, syslog-ng in Debian has this config statement:<br>
<br>
destination d_console_all { file(`tty10`); };<br>
<br>
This results in syslog-ng writing the a new /dev/tty10 file instead of<br>
to a device, which will pretty quickly fill up an LXC /dev partition,<br>
causing syslog-ng to soon start failing when it sees the device<br>
associated with tty10 file handle full.<br>
<br>
I have modified my syslog-ng.conf directly to use tty2 as the blog<br>
post suggested, but it would be nice if there was a "cleaner"<br>
work-around in the future.<br>
