013dc89f 5`cmode`: `<console | shell | tty>` ('default =' `tty`)::
71e16346 6
c2993fe5 7Console mode. By default, the console command tries to open a connection to one of the available tty devices. By setting cmode to 'console' it tries to attach to /dev/console instead. If you set cmode to 'shell', it simply invokes a shell inside the container (no login).
71e16346 8
013dc89f 9`console`: `<boolean>` ('default =' `1`)::
71e16346

71e16346
DM
18
19Limit of CPU usage.
20+
c2993fe5 21NOTE: If the computer has 2 CPUs, it has a total of '2' CPU time. Value '0' indicates no CPU limit.
71e16346 22
013dc89f 23`cpuunits`: `<integer> (0 - 500000)` ('default =' `1024`)::
71e16346 24
c2993fe5 25CPU weight for a VM. Argument is used in the kernel fair scheduler. The larger the number is, the more CPU time this VM gets. Number is relative to the weights of all the other running VMs.
71e16346
DM
26+
27NOTE: You can disable fair-scheduler configuration by setting this to 0.
