NAME

       cgmanager - a daemon to manage cgroups

SYNOPSIS

       cgmanager [OPTION]...

DESCRIPTION

       cgmanager  is  a  daemon to manage cgroups.  Programs and users can make D-Bus requests to
       administer cgroups over which they have privilege.  To ensure that users  may  not  exceed
       their privilege in manipulating cgroups, the cgroup manager accepts regular D-Bus requests
       only from tasks within its own process-id and  user  namespaces.   For  tasks  in  private
       namespaces  (such  as  containers),  SCM-enhanced  D-Bus calls are available.  Using these
       manually is not recommended.  Rather, each container is advised to run  a  cgproxy,  which
       will forward plain D-Bus requests as SCM-enhanced D-Bus requests to the host cgmanager.

EXAMPLES

       To create a new memory cgroup called 'compute', you can use:
       dbus-send          --print-reply         --address=unix:path=/sys/fs/cgroup/cgmanager/sock
       --type=method_call /org/linuxcontainers/cgmanager  org.linuxcontainers.cgmanager0_0.Create
       string:'memory' string:"compute" > /dev/null 2>&1
       To set a limit of 100000,
       dbus-send          --print-reply         --address=unix:path=/sys/fs/cgroup/cgmanager/sock
       --type=method_call                                          /org/linuxcontainers/cgmanager
       org.linuxcontainers.cgmanager0_0.SetValue         string:'memory'         string:"compute"
       string:memory.limit_in_bytes int32:100000 > /dev/null 2>&1
