[libvirt-users] How to retrieve legacy cgroups location ?

[Jean-Pierre Ribeauville]

Hi,

1) As I was totally unable to find it , I tried to reboot my server.

2) And then,  I found all the stuff located there (included the three subdirs for the 3 Guests) :

ls /cgroup/cpu/libvirt/qemu
cgroup.event_control  cgroup.procs  cpu.cfs_period_us  cpu.cfs_quota_us  cpu.rt_period_us  cpu.rt_runtime_us  cpu.shares  cpu.stat  notify_on_release  tasks  VM_Orion-1  VM_Orion-2  VM_ORION-W2008R2-1


Thx.

J.P.

I just skimmed through the question, but wouldn't reading '/proc/$(pidof libvirtd)/cgroup' or cat /proc/$QEMU_PID/cgroup be enough?
