Apologies if this is a noob question. Is there a way to use custom slices with my systemd-nspawn container ? I see that systemd-nspawn man page says using --slice= but any such cgroup created is not accepted by this option (I dont know how to create a slice externally from systemd unit-files) <address><tt>$ sudo cgcreate -g freezer,memory:/test</tt></address> <address><tt>$ sudo systemd-nspawn -jbD ./a --slice=/test </tt></address> <address><tt>Spawning container a on /tmp/a.</tt></address> <address><tt>Press ^] three times within 1s to kill container.</tt></address> <address><tt>Failed to register machine: Invalid unit name '/test'</tt></address> If I run it without the --slice= option I see that the memory of a process inside the container runs under /system.slice and is not associated with a freezer controller. OR in short I am not getting a clue on how to create cgroup slices separately and use it in systemd-nspawn (without using unit files) Please could someone help ?
