is a directory with a specification file named "` + specConfig + `" and a root
filesystem.

The specification file includes an args parameter. The args parameter is used
to specify command(s) that get run when the container is started. To change the
command(s) that get executed on start, edit the args parameter of the spec. See
"runc spec --help" for more explanation.`,
