cgcreate: Create a new group with multiple cgroup types.
$ cgcreate -g ${group_type1},${group_type2}:${group_name}
try on your machine
The command cgcreate -g ${group_type1},${group_type2}:${group_name}
is used to create a new control group (cgroup) with the specified group types and name.
Here's an explanation of the command parts:
cgcreate
: It is the command to create a new cgroup.-g ${group_type1},${group_type2}
: The-g
option specifies the group types that will be created.${group_type1}
and${group_type2}
are placeholders for actual group types. Multiple group types can be specified using a comma-separated list.${group_name}
: It is also a placeholder representing the desired name for the cgroup.
For example, if you want to create a cgroup with two group types: cpu
and memory
, and the name for the group is mygroup
, the command would be:
cgcreate -g cpu,memory:mygroup
This command would create a cgroup named mygroup
with both cpu
and memory
group types. You can replace cpu
and memory
with other valid group types as per your requirements.
