Proxmox 3.2: Finding the container CTID from the command line

 

If you are in a terminal and want to find the container IDs (CTID) quickly without opening up a browser, run the following:

 

vzlist

 

It should return a list of the container IDs, the VM state, their IP addresses and hostnames like so:

 

      CTID      NPROC STATUS    IP_ADDR         HOSTNAME
100         25 running   10.1.1.51       nyx.luna.com
101         17 running   10.1.1.65       euphrosyne.luna.com
102         58 running   10.1.1.22       metis.luna.com
103         15 running   10.1.1.25       curo.luna.com
104         52 running   10.1.1.60       ogmios.luna.com

Quick and easy.
