<title>Description</title>
<para><command>systemd-cgtop</command> shows the top
control groups of the local Linux control group
hierarchy, ordered by their CPU, memory, or disk I/O load. The
display is refreshed in regular intervals (by default
every 1s), similar in style to
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>top</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
If <command>systemd-cgtop</command> is not connected
to a tty, only one iteration is performed and no
columns headers are printed. This mode is suitable for
scripting.</para>
<para>Resource usage is only accounted for control
groups in the relevant hierarchy, i.e. CPU usage is
only accounted for control groups in the
<literal>cpuacct</literal> hierarchy, memory usage
only for those in <literal>memory</literal> and disk
I/O usage for those in <literal>blkio</literal>. If
resource monitoring for these resources is required,
it is recommended to add the
<varname>CPUAccounting=1</varname>,
<varname>MemoryAccounting=1</varname> and
<varname>BlockIOAccounting=1</varname> settings in the
unit files in question. See
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.resource-control</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
for details.</para>
<para>To emphasize this: unless
<literal>CPUAccounting=1</literal>,
<literal>MemoryAccounting=1</literal> and
<literal>BlockIOAccounting=1</literal> are enabled for
the services in question, no resource accounting will
be available for system services and the data shown by
<command>systemd-cgtop</command> will be
incomplete.</para>
