NAME

       docker-container-pause - Pause all processes within one or more containers

SYNOPSIS

       docker container pause CONTAINER [CONTAINER...]

DESCRIPTION

       The  docker  container  pause command suspends all processes in the specified containers.  On Linux, this
       uses the freezer cgroup. Traditionally, when suspending a process the SIGSTOP signal is  used,  which  is
       observable by the process being suspended.  With the freezer cgroup the process is unaware, and unable to
       capture, that it is being suspended, and subsequently resumed. On Windows, only Hyper-V containers can be
       paused.

       See                   the                  freezer                  cgroup                  documentation
       ⟨https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/cgroup-v1/freezer-subsystem.txt⟩ for further details.
