- <para>This option may be used to place
- executed processes in arbitrary groups
- in arbitrary hierarchies -- which may
- then be externally configured with
- additional execution limits. By
- default systemd will place all
- executed processes in separate
- per-unit control groups (named after
- the unit) in the systemd named
- hierarchy. This option is primarily
- intended to place executed processes
- in specific paths in specific kernel
- controller hierarchies. It is not
- recommended to manipulate the service
- control group path in the private
- systemd named hierarchy
- (i.e. <literal>name=systemd</literal>),
- and doing this might result in
- undefined behaviour. For details about
- control groups see <ulink

- option the list of control group
- assignments is reset, all previous

- <listitem><para>Set a specific control
- group attribute for executed
- processes, and (if needed) add the
- executed processes to a cgroup in the
- hierarchy of the controller the
- attribute belongs to. Takes two
- space-separated arguments: the
- attribute name (syntax is
- <literal>cpu.shares</literal> where
- <literal>cpu</literal> refers to a
- specific controller and
- <literal>shares</literal> to the
- attribute name), and the attribute
- value. Example:
- <literal>ControlGroupAttribute=cpu.shares
- 512</literal>. If this option is used
- for an attribute that belongs to a
- kernel controller hierarchy the unit
- is not already configured to be added
- to (for example via the
- <literal>ControlGroup=</literal>
- option) then the unit will be added to
- the controller and the default unit
- cgroup path is implied. Thus, using
- <varname>ControlGroupAttribute=</varname>
- is in most cases sufficient to make
- use of control group enforcements,
- explicit
- <varname>ControlGroup=</varname> are
- only necessary in case the implied
- default control group path for a
- service is not desirable. For details
- about control group attributes see
