lxc-cgroup (1)

lxc-cgroup \kx {-n name} {state-object} [value]

lxc-cgroup gets or sets the value of a state-object (e.g., 'cpuset.cpus') in the container's cgroup for the corresponding subsystem (e.g., 'cpuset'). If no [value] is specified, the current value of the state-object is displayed; otherwise it is set.

Note that lxc-cgroup does not check that the state-object is valid for the running kernel, or that the corresponding subsystem is contained in any mounted cgroup hierarchy.

state-object

Specify the state object name.

\*(T<[value]\*(T>

Specify the value to assign to the state object.

These options are common to most of lxc commands.

\*(T<-?, -h, --help\*(T>

Print a longer usage message than normal.

\*(T<--usage\*(T>

Give the usage message

\*(T<-q, --quiet\*(T>

mute on

\*(T<-P, --lxcpath=\*(T>PATH

Use an alternate container path. The default is /var/lib/lxc.

\*(T<-o, --logfile=\*(T>FILE

Output to an alternate log FILE. The default is no log.

\*(T<-l, --logpriority=\*(T>LEVEL

Set log priority to LEVEL. The default log priority is \*(T<ERROR\*(T>. Possible values are : \*(T<FATAL\*(T>, \*(T<CRIT\*(T>, \*(T<WARN\*(T>, \*(T<ERROR\*(T>, \*(T<NOTICE\*(T>, \*(T<INFO\*(T>, \*(T<DEBUG\*(T>.

Note that this option is setting the priority of the events log in the alternate log file. It do not have effect on the ERROR events log on stderr.

\*(T<-n, --name=\*(T>NAME

Use container identifier NAME. The container identifier format is an alphanumeric string.

lxc-cgroup -n foo devices.list

display the allowed devices to be used.

lxc-cgroup -n foo cpuset.cpus "0,3"

assign the processors 0 and 3 to the container.

The container was not found

The container is not running.
