A slice unit is a concept for hierarchically managing resources of a group of processes. This management is + performed by creating a node in the Linux Control Group (cgroup) tree. Units that manage processes (primarily scope + and service units) may be assigned to a specific slice. For each slice, certain resource limits may be set that + apply to all processes of all units contained in that slice. Slices are organized hierarchically in a tree. The + name of the slice encodes the location in the tree. The name consists of a dash-separated series of names, which + describes the path to the slice from the root slice. The root slice is named <filename>-.slice</filename>. Example: + <filename>foo-bar.slice</filename> is a slice that is located within <filename>foo.slice</filename>, which in turn + is located in the root slice <filename>-.slice</filename>. + </para> + + <para>Note that slice units cannot be templated, nor is possible to add multiple names to a slice unit by creating + additional symlinks to its unit file.</para> + + <para>By default, service and scope units are placed in + <filename>system.slice</filename>, virtual machines and containers + registered with + <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-machined</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> + are found in <filename>machine.slice</filename>, and user sessions + handled by + <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-logind</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> + in <filename>user.slice</filename>.
