NAME

       cgclassify - move running task(s) to given cgroups

SYNOPSIS

       cgclassify [-g <controllers>:<path>] [--sticky | --cancel-sticky] <pidlist>

DESCRIPTION

       this command moves processes defined by the list of processes (pidlist) to the given control groups.

       The pids in the pidlist are separated by spaces

       -g <controllers>:<path>
              defines the control groups where the task will be moved.  controllers is a list of controllers and
              path is the relative path to control groups in the given controllers list.

              This flag can be used multiple times to define multiple pairs of lists of controllers and relative
              paths.  Instead of the list of all mounted controllers, the wildcard * can be used.

              If  this  option  is  not used then cgclassify will automatically move the task to a control group
              based on /etc/cgrules.conf.

       --sticky
              If this option is used, the daemon of service cgred (cgrulesengd process) does not change both the
              specified  pidlist  and their children tasks.  Without this option, the daemon does not change the
              specified pidlist but it automatically changes their child tasks to  the  right  cgroup  based  on
              /etc/cgrules.conf.

       --cancel-sticky
              If this option is used, the daemon of service cgred (cgrulesengd process) can automatically change
              both the specified pidlist and their child tasks to the right cgroup based on /etc/cgrules.conf.
