-For Debian-based systems, the Arvados package repository includes a backported @docker.io@ package with a known-good version you can install.
+h2(#cgroups). Configure Linux cgroups accounting
-h2(#configure_docker_daemon). Configure the Docker daemon
-
-Crunch runs Docker containers with relatively little configuration. You may need to start the Docker daemon with specific options to make sure these jobs run smoothly in your environment. This section highlights options that are useful to most installations. Refer to the "Docker daemon reference":https://docs.docker.com/reference/commandline/daemon/ for complete information about all available options.
-
-The best way to configure these options varies by distribution.
+Linux can report what compute resources are used by processes in a specific cgroup or Docker container. Crunch can use these reports to share that information with users running compute work. This can help workflow authors debug and optimize their workflows.
-* If you're using our backported @docker.io@ package, you can list these options in the @DOCKER_OPTS@ setting in @/etc/default/docker.io@.
-* If you're using another Debian-based package, you can list these options in the @DOCKER_OPTS@ setting in @/etc/default/docker@.
-* On Red Hat-based distributions, you can list these options in the @other_args@ setting in @/etc/sysconfig/docker@.

-h3. Default ulimits
+To enable cgroups accounting, you must boot Linux with the command line parameters @cgroup_enable=memory swapaccount=1@.
-Docker containers inherit ulimits from the Docker daemon. However, the ulimits for a single Unix daemon may not accommodate a long-running Crunch job. You may want to increase default limits for compute containers by passing @--default-ulimit@ options to the Docker daemon. For example, to allow containers to open 10,000 files, set @--default-ulimit nofile=10000:10000@.
+Currently Arvados is not compatible with the new cgroups accounting, also known as cgroups v2. Currently, all supported GNU/Linux distributions don't use cgroups v2 as default
+If you are using a distribution in the compute nodes that ships with cgroups v2 enabled, make sure to disable it by booting Linux with the command line parameters @systemd.unified_cgroup_hierarchy=0@.
-h3. DNS
+After making changes, reboot the system to make these changes effective.
-Your containers must be able to resolve the hostname of your API server and any hostnames returned in Keep service records. If these names are not in public DNS records, you may need to specify a DNS resolver for the containers by setting the @--dns@ address to an IP address of an appropriate nameserver. You may specify this option more than once to use multiple nameservers.

+h3. Debian and Ubuntu
-To enable cgroups accounting, you must boot Linux with the command line parameters @cgroup_enable=memory swapaccount=1@.
-
-On Debian-based systems, open the file @/etc/default/grub@ in an editor. Find where the string @GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX@ is set. Add @cgroup_enable=memory swapaccount=1@ to that string. Save the file and exit the editor. Then run:
