       cgsnapshot - generate the configuration file for given controllers

SYNOPSIS

       cgsnapshot  [-h]  [-s]  [-t]  [-b  file]  [-w  file]  [-f  output_file]
       [controller] [...]

DESCRIPTION

       cgsnapshot generates the cgconfig  compatible  configuration  file  for
       given  controllers.  If no controller is set, then cgsnapshot shows all
       mounted hierarchies.  The output is in the same format as cgconfig.conf
       configuration file.

       -b file
              Display  only variables from blacklist.  The default location of
              the  blacklist  is  /etc/cgsnapshot_blacklist.conf.   This  list
              contains  all  variables  which  should be ignored by cgsnapshot
              tool.  If the variable is  blacklisted,  then  it  will  not  be
              displayed.   If  it  is  not  present on the blacklist, then the
              whitelist is checked.

       -h, --help
              display this help and exit

       -f, --file
              Redirect the output to output_file

       -s, --silent
              Ignore all warnings

       -t, --strict
              Do not display the variables which are not on the whitelist

       -w file
              Set the blacklist configuration file.  This  list  contains  all
              variables  which should be displayed by cgsnapshot tool.  If the
              variable is not blacklisted then whitelist is checked.   If  the
              variable is on the whitelist, then it is displayed by cgsnapshot
              tool.  If the  variable  is  not  on  the  whitelist,  then  the
              variable  is  displayed  and  warning  message  is produced.  By
              default the whitelist is not used.

              The warning message can be omitted using -s, --silent flag.   If
              -t,  --strict  flag  is  used  then the variable which is not on
              whitelist is not displayed.

       controller
              defines controller whose hierarchies will be output
