===== Solution =====


As solution, LXC provide option: ''-l, --enable-loadavg Enable loadavg virtualization''.

''This feature doesn't add to the isolation at all. `sysinfo()` will return the host information even when in a container.''
 
<file conf /etc/systemd/system/lxcfs.service.d/override.conf>
[Service]
ExecStart=
ExecStart=/usr/bin/lxcfs -l /var/lib/lxcfs
</file>

NOTE: After restarting lxcfs.service, running containers lost /proc access. Restart of containers is required.
<code bash>
systemctl restart lxcfs
