Type: none¶
Note
The none device type is supported for both containers and VMs.
A none device doesn’t have any properties and doesn’t create anything inside the instance.
Its only purpose is to stop inheriting devices that come from profiles.
To do so, add a device with the same name as the one that you do not want to inherit, but with the device type none.
You can add this device either in a profile that is applied after the profile that contains the original device, or directly on the instance.
Configuration examples¶
Add a none device to an instance:
lxc config device add <instance_name> <device_name> none
See Configure devices for more information.
