NAME
docker-pause - Pause all processes within a container
SYNOPSIS
docker pause CONTAINER [CONTAINER...]
DESCRIPTION
The docker pause command uses the cgroups freezer to suspend all processes in
a container. Traditionally when suspending a process the SIGSTOP signal is
used, which is observable by the process being suspended. With the cgroups freezer
the process is unaware, and unable to capture, that it is being suspended,
and subsequently resumed.
See the [cgroups freezer documentation] (https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/cgroups/freezer-subsystem.txt) for further details.
OPTIONS
There are no available options.
