Why does this command fail to limit CPU usage correctly?
docker run --cpu-quota=100000 --cpu-period=200000 myimage

ACPU quota and period values are reversed.

BCPU quota must be less than or equal to CPU period.

CCPU period must be less than CPU quota.

DCPU quota and period must be equal.

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Understand CPU quota and period
CPU quota limits CPU time in microseconds per CPU period. Quota must be ≤ period to limit CPU usage.
Step 2: Analyze given values
Quota is 100000, period is 200000, quota ≤ period is valid, so no syntax error here.
Step 3: Reconsider options
Actually, quota ≤ period is correct, so no failure due to this. The command is valid and limits CPU to 0.5 CPU.
Final Answer:
CPU period must be less than CPU quota. -> Option C
Quick Check:
CPU quota ≤ CPU period rule [OK]

Quick Trick: CPU quota ≤ CPU period to limit CPU usage [OK]
