JLS(8) System Manager's Manual JLS(8) NAME jls -- list jails SYNOPSIS jls [--libxo] [-dhNnqsv] [-j jail] [parameter ...] jls -c [-d] -j jail DESCRIPTION The jls utility lists all active jails, or the specified jail. Each jail is represented by space-separated values of the listed parameters, one jail per line (unless the parameters themselves contain newlines). The pseudo- parameter all will show all available jail parameters. A list of available parameters can be retrieved via "sysctl -d security.jail.param". See jail(8) for a description of some core parameters. If no parameters or any of the options -chns are given, the following four columns will be printed: jail identifier (jid), IP address (ip4.addr), hostname (host.hostname), and path (path). When the -c option is used, jls will not emit any output except for usage errors. This mode is intended solely to check for a single jail's exis- tence, and it does not accept any parameter or print-option flags. The following options are available: --libxo Generate output via libxo(3) in a selection of different human and machine readable formats. See xo_options(7) for details on command line arguments. -c Only check for the jail's existence. -d List dying as well as active jails. -h Print a header line containing the parameters listed. If no para- meters are given on the command line, all is assumed. -N In the standard display mode, print each jail's name instead of its numeric ID. If the jail does not have a name, the numeric ID is printed instead. -n Print parameters in "name=value" format, where each parameter is preceded by its name. If no parameters are given on the command line, all is assumed. -q Put quotes around parameters if they contain spaces or quotes, or are the empty string. -s Print parameters suitable for passing to jail(8), skipping read- only and unused parameters. Implies -nq. -v Extend the standard display with a multiple-line summary per jail, containing the following parameters: jail identifier (jid), host- name (host.hostname), path (path), jail name (name), jail state (dying), cpuset ID (cpuset), IP address(es) (ip4.addr and ip6.addr). -j jail The jid or name of the jail to list. Without this option, all ac- tive jails will be listed. SEE ALSO jail_get(2), libxo(3), xo_options(7), jail(8), jexec(8) HISTORY The jls utility was added in FreeBSD 5.1.
