systemd.slice - Slice unit configuration

<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
<P>
A unit configuration file whose name ends in
&quot;.slice&quot;
encodes information about a slice unit. A slice unit is a concept for hierarchically managing resources of a group of processes. This management is performed by creating a node in the Linux Control Group (cgroup) tree. Units that manage processes (primarily scope and service units) may be assigned to a specific slice. For each slice, certain resource limits may be set that apply to all processes of all units contained in that slice. Slices are organized hierarchically in a tree. The name of the slice encodes the location in the tree. The name consists of a dash-separated series of names, which describes the path to the slice from the root slice. The root slice is named
-.slice. Example:
foo-bar.slice
is a slice that is located within
foo.slice, which in turn is located in the root slice
-.slice.
<P>
Note that slice units cannot be templated, nor is possible to add multiple names to a slice unit by creating additional symlinks to its unit file.
<P>
By default, service and scope units are placed in
system.slice, virtual machines and containers registered with
<B><A HREF="/cgi-bin/man/man2html?8+systemd-machined">systemd-machined</A></B>(8)
are found in
machine.slice, and user sessions handled by
<B><A HREF="/cgi-bin/man/man2html?8+systemd-logind">systemd-logind</A></B>(8)
in
user.slice. See
<B><A HREF="/cgi-bin/man/man2html?7+systemd.special">systemd.special</A></B>(7)
for more information.
<P>
See
<B><A HREF="/cgi-bin/man/man2html?5+systemd.unit">systemd.unit</A></B>(5)
for the common options of all unit configuration files. The common configuration items are configured in the generic
&quot;[Unit]&quot;
and
&quot;[Install]&quot;
sections. The slice specific configuration options are configured in the
&quot;[Slice]&quot;
section. Currently, only generic resource control settings as described in
<B><A HREF="/cgi-bin/man/man2html?5+systemd.resource-control">systemd.resource-control</A></B>(5)
are allowed.
<P>
See the
m[blue]<B>New Control Group Interfaces</B>m[]<FONT SIZE="-2">[1]</FONT>
for an introduction on how to make use of slice units from programs.

<H3>Implicit Dependencies</H3>
<P>
The following dependencies are implicitly added:
<P>
<DL COMPACT><DT id="1"><DD>
&bull;
Slice units automatically gain dependencies of type
<I>After=</I>
and
<I>Requires=</I>
on their immediate parent slice unit.
</DL>
<A NAME="lbAG">&nbsp;</A>
<H3>Default Dependencies</H3>
<P>
The following dependencies are added unless
<I>DefaultDependencies=no</I>
is set:
<P>
<DL COMPACT><DT id="2"><DD>
&bull;
Slice units will automatically have dependencies of type
<I>Conflicts=</I>
and
<I>Before=</I>
on
shutdown.target. These ensure that slice units are removed prior to system shutdown. Only slice units involved with late system shutdown should disable
<I>DefaultDependencies=</I>
option.
