Would word that as: "The https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v6.14/admin-guide/cgroup-v1/index.html[v1 version] of the cgroup subsystem was deprecated with the release of Proxmox VE 7.0 and removed entirely with Proxmox VE 9.0." > +https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v6.14/admin-guide/cgroup-v1/index.html[legacy] > +version. > > -Since {pve} 7.0, the default is a pure 'cgroupv2' environment.

Alternatively we could just keep the anchor and move it earlier in the text, where it's stated that v1 isn't supported for PVE 9 at all, that way at least the links would still work and give the user _some_ context. > - > -TIP: If file system quotas are not required and all containers support > 'cgroupv2', > -it is recommended to stick to the new default. > - > -To switch back to the previous version the following kernel command-line > -parameter can be used: > - > ----- > -systemd.unified_cgroup_hierarchy=0 > ----- > - > -See xref:sysboot_edit_kernel_cmdline[this section] on editing the kernel boot > -command line on where to add the parameter. > - > // TODO: seccomp a bit more. > // TODO: pve-lxc-syscalld > _______________________________________________ pve-devel mailing list pve-devel@lists.proxmox.com https://lists.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pve-devel
