CGEXEC(1)		       libcgroup Manual			     CGEXEC(1)

NAME
       cgexec - run the task in given control groups

SYNOPSIS
       cgexec [-h] [-g <controllers>:<path>] [--sticky] command [arguments]

DESCRIPTION
       The  cgexec  program executes the task command with arguments arguments
       in the given control groups.

       -g <controllers>:<path>
	      defines the control groups in which the task will be run.	  con‐
	      trollers	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 b"*b" can be used.

	      If this option is not used, cgexec will automatically place  the
	      task in the right cgroup based on /etc/cgrules.conf.

	      If  /etc/cgrules.conf  configuration  file is used, there can be
	      used template names. Then the control group name contains a tem‐
	      plate  in	 destination  tag  (see	 cgrules.conf  (5)) and if the
	      cgroup does not exist in execution time, it is created, based on
	      /etc/cgconfig.conf specification.	 If the specifications are not
	      present the group is created with the default kernel values.

       -h, --help
	      Display this help and exit.

       --sticky
	      If running the task command with this option, the daemon of ser‐
	      vice  cgred  (cgrulesengd process) does not change both the task
	      of the command and the child tasks.  Without  this  option,  the
	      daemon  does  not	 change the task of the command but it changes
	      the child tasks to the right cgroup based	 on  /etc/cgrules.conf
	      automatically.

EXAMPLES
       cgexec -g *:test1 ls
       runs command ls in control group test1 in all mounted controllers.

       cgexec -g cpu,memory:test1 ls -l
       runs  command  ls -l in control group test1 in controllers cpu and mem‐
       ory.

       cgexec -g cpu,memory:test1 -g swap:test2 ls -l
       runs command ls -l in control group test1 in controllers cpu and memory
       and control group test2 in controller swap.
