3.4. Removing Control Groups

Remove cgroups with the cgdelete command that has syntax similar to that of cgcreate. Enter the following command as root:

cgdelete controllers:path

~]# cgdelete controllers:pathcgdelete controllers:pathcgdelete controllers:pathcgdelete controllers:path

Copy to Clipboard

Toggle word wrap

where:

For example:

cgdelete net_prio:/test-subgroup

~]# cgdelete net_prio:/test-subgroup

Copy to Clipboard

Toggle word wrap

cgdelete can also recursively remove all subgroups when the -r option is specified.

Note that when you delete a cgroup, all its processes move to its parent group.
