bastille-convert(8)

NAME
bastille convert - Convert a jail from thin to thick; convert a jail to a custom release.

SYNOPSIS
bastille [-ayx] TARGET
bastille [-ax] TARGET RELEASE

DESCRIPTION
The bastille sub-command will convert a thin jail to a thick jail if only the TARGET argument is given. If a TARGET and RELEASE is specified, it will convert the jail (must be a thick jail) into a custom release. The jail will remain intact, and you will have a duplicate of it to use a a release base for any new jails.

bastille convert [-ayx] TARGET

    -a, --auto
        Auto mode. Start/stop jail(s) if required.

    -y, --yes
        Do not prompt. Assume always yes.

    -x, --debug
        Enable debug mode.

        Converting a thin jail to a thick jail is not reversible. You will be be prompted to accept this action if [-y|--yes] is not specified.

bastille convert [-ayx] TARGET RELEASE

    -a, --auto
        Auto mode. Start/stop jail(s) if requried.

    -x, --debug
        Enable debug mode.

        A release created by this method is stored in the releases directory, and can be used to create jails with the '--no-validate' flag. See bastille-create(8).
