<para>Retrieve the specified control group attributes of the
specified unit. Takes a unit name and one or more attribute
names such as <literal>cpu.shares</literal>. This will
output the current values of the specified attributes,
separated by new-lines. For attributes that take a list of
items, the output will be newline-separated, too. This
operation will always try to retrieve the data in question
from the kernel first, and if that is not available, use the
configured values instead. Instead of low-level control
group attribute names, high-level pretty names may be used,
as used for unit execution environment configuration, see
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.exec</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
for details. For example, passing
<literal>memory.limit_in_bytes</literal> and
<literal>MemoryLimit</literal> is equivalent.</para>

<para>Set the specified unit properties at runtime where
this is supported. This allows changing configuration
parameter properties such as resource management controls at
runtime. Not all properties may be changed at runtime, but
many resource management settings (primarily those in
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.cgroup</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>)
may. The changes are applied instantly, and stored on disk
for future boots, unless <option>--runtime</option> is
passed in which case the settings only apply until the next
reboot. The syntax of the property assignment follows
closely the syntax of assignments in unit files.</para>

<para>Example: <command>systemctl set-property foobar.service CPUShares=777</command></para>
<listitem>
<para>Set the specified control group attribute of the
specified unit to the specified value. Takes a unit
name and an attribute name such as
<literal>cpu.shares</literal>, plus one or more values
(multiple values may only be used for attributes that take
multiple values). This operation will immediately update the
kernel attribute for this unit and persistently store this
setting for later reboots (unless <option>--runtime</option>
is passed, in which case the setting is not saved
persistently and only valid until the next reboot.) Instead
of low-level control group attribute names, high-level pretty
names may be used, as used for unit execution environment
configuration, see
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.exec</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
for details. For example, passing
<literal>memory.limit_in_bytes</literal> and
<literal>MemoryLimit</literal> is equivalent. This operation
will implicitly create a control group for the unit in the
controller the attribute belongs to, if needed. For
attributes that take multiple values, this operation will
append the specified values to the previously set values
list (use <command>unset-cgroup-attr</command> to reset the
list explicitly). For attributes that take a single value
only, the list will be reset implicitly.</para>

<listitem><para>Unset the specified control group attributes
of the specified unit. Takes a unit name and one or more
attribut names such as <literal>cpu.shares</literal>. This
operation might or might not have an immediate effect on the
current kernel attribute value. This will remove any
persistently stored configuration values for this attribute
(as set with <command>set-cgroup-attr</command> before),
unless <option>--runtime</option> is passed, in which case the
configuration is reset only until the next reboot. Again,
high-level control group attributes may be used instead of the
low-level kernel ones. For attributes which take multiple
values, all currently set values are reset.</para>

<listitem><para>Add or remove a unit to/from a specific
control group hierarchy and/or control group path. Takes a
unit name, plus a control group specification in the syntax
<replaceable>CONTROLLER</replaceable>:<replaceable>PATH</replaceable>
or <replaceable>CONTROLLER</replaceable>. In the latter syntax
(where the path is omitted), the default unit control group
path is implied. Examples: <literal>cpu</literal> or
<literal>cpu:/foo/bar</literal>. If a unit is removed from a
control group hierarchy, all its processes will be moved to the
root group of the hierarchy and all control group attributes
will be reset. These operations are immediately reflected in
the kernel hierarchy, and stored persistently to disk (unless
<option>--runtime</option> is passed).</para>
<para>Note that this command allows changing multiple
properties at the same time, which is preferable over
setting them individually. Like unit file configuration
settings assigning the empty list to list parameters will
reset the list.</para>
