Deploy a vm then install docker-ce in the vm, it works. but take a lot resource than directly install docker in proxmox.

Is there a way to take less performance ,at the same time we cant easly mange it with proxmox ?The answer is run docker in lxc.

Hello from Docker!
This message shows that your installation appears to be working correctly.

To generate this message, Docker took the following steps:
 1. The Docker client contacted the Docker daemon.
 2. The Docker daemon pulled the "hello-world" image from the Docker Hub.
    (amd64)
 3. The Docker daemon created a new container from that image which runs the
    executable that produces the output you are currently reading.
 4. The Docker daemon streamed that output to the Docker client, which sent it
    to your terminal.

To try something more ambitious, you can run an Ubuntu container with:
 $ docker run -it ubuntu bash

Welcome to Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS (GNU/Linux 4.15.18-12-pve x86_64)

 * Documentation:  https://help.ubuntu.com
 * Management:     https://landscape.canonical.com
 * Support:        https://ubuntu.com/advantage

 * Ubuntu's Kubernetes 1.14 distributions can bypass Docker and use containerd
   directly, see https://bit.ly/ubuntu-containerd or try it now with

     snap install microk8s --classic

 * Canonical Livepatch is available for installation.
   - Reduce system reboots and improve kernel security. Activate at:
     https://ubuntu.com/livepatch
Cannot execute zsh: No such file or directory

Solution: I wounder that is a a command like docker command docker exec -it $dockername /bin/sh Bingo! Here we go:

1

5
lxc-attach -n $lxc_pid /bin/sh
#for example:
lxc-attach -n 103 /bin/sh
vi /etc/password
#then change root shell path to /bin/sh

After reboot and I can login again.
