You have been subscribed to a public bug:
The command "shutdown -r +5" doesn't work in a xenial lxc container. I
found this out by trying to use Landscape to restart a xenial lxc
container and the operation failed. I was told by the Landscape team
that the restart button simply does a "shutdown -r +5".
The problem seems to be that the dbus package is missing in the xenial
lxc image.
This is what happens:
root at xenialtest:/# shutdown -r +5
Failed to connect to bus: No such file or directory
Failed to connect to bus: No such file or directory
And if I install dbus:
root at xenialtest:/# shutdown -r +5
Shutdown scheduled for Wed 2016-06-08 19:28:44 UTC, use 'shutdown -c' to cancel.
The issue happens whether I use the download template or the ubuntu
template when creating the LXC container:
root at davecorelaptop:/var/cache/lxc# lxc-create -t ubuntu -n test2
root at davecorelaptop:/var/cache/lxc# lxc-start -d -n test2
root at davecorelaptop:/var/cache/lxc# lxc-attach -n test2
root at test2:/# lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
Release: 16.04
Codename: xenial
root at test2:/# shutdown -r +5
Failed to connect to bus: No such file or directory

You just created an Ubuntu container (release=xenial, arch=amd64, variant=default)
To enable sshd, run: apt-get install openssh-server
For security reason, container images ship without user accounts
and without a root password.
Use lxc-attach or chroot directly into the rootfs to set a root password
or create user accounts.

I cleared my /var/cache/lxc before doing these 2 tests. The tests were
done around 11:00 AM Eastern time on June 9 2016.
Note that a "shutdown -r now" works properly. The problem happens only
when I specify minutes.
And also note that installing the dbus package also fixes the issue.
