CGM(1)

NAME
cgm - manual page for cgm 0.22

DESCRIPTION
cgm is a client script to simplify making requests of the cgroup manager. It simply calls dbus-send to send requests to the running cgmanager or cgproxy.

  Usage:

    cgm ping

    cgm create <controller> cgroup

    cgm chown <controller> <cgroup> uid gid

    cgm chmod <controller> <cgroup> mode

    cgm remove <controller> <cgroup>

    cgm getpidcgroup <controller> pid

    cgm getpidcgroupabs <controller> pid

    cgm movepid <controller> <cgroup> pid

    cgm movepidabs <controller> <cgroup> pid

    cgm getvalue <controller> <cgroup> file

    cgm setvalue <controller> <cgroup> file value

    cgm gettasks <controller> <cgroup>

    cgm listchildren <controller> <cgroup>

    cgm removeonempty <controller> <cgroup>

    cgm apiversion

    Replace '<controller>' with the desired controller, i.e. memory, and '<cgroup>' with the desired cgroup, i.e. x1. For create, chown, chmod, remove, and movepid, <controller> may be "all". To refer to the current cgroup, use ''.

EXAMPLES

To create a new cgroup called foo and move your shell into it, you could do:

sudo cgm create all foo
sudo cgm chown all foo $(id -u) $(id -g)
cgm movepid all foo $$

Then to freeze that cgroup,

cgm setvalue freezer foo freezer.state FROZEN
