Description Krishna Raman 2013-08-07 06:31:18 UTC

Description of problem:
When using virt-sandbox-service execute, the resultant process is switched into the containers namespace but the cgroup remains that or the parent shell, instead of the cgroup of the container

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
libvirt 1.1.1
libvirt-sandbox 5.0.5

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create and start LXC container
2. Use virt-sandbox-service execute to switch into container
3. Inspect the cgroup of the resultant process

Actual results:
CGroup remains cgroup of shell from which virt-sandbox-service was started.

Expected results:
CGroup switches to container's cgroup

Additional info:
If we dont change cgroup then any process launched from virt-sandbox-service is not confined to CPU/Memory limits assigned to container.
