A number of the libvirt APIs require the use of cgroups. This is not enabled by default on a RHEL6 install. After discussion with cgroups team, it was decided that upon installation of the libvirt RPM, we should automatically turn on the cgroups service. This will activate a default configuration that turns on all cgroups controllers libvirt requires for full operation.
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
