# pause
|
||||
|
||||
Usage: docker pause CONTAINER [CONTAINER...]
|
||||
|
||||
Pause all processes within a container
|
||||
|
||||
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.
