A control device that controls a vehicle drive device in which a first rotating electrical machine and a speed change mechanism are provided on a power transmission path connecting an internal combustion engine and wheels. The control device includes a first pump that is driven by the first rotating electrical machine and a second pump that is driven by a second rotating electrical machine provided independently of the power transmission path. The control device is configured with an auxiliary drive control section that, when a main power supply of a vehicle is turned on, executes auxiliary drive control of driving the first pump for a set drive time by the first rotating electrical machine before driving the second pump by the second rotating electrical machine, and starting the second pump after elapse of the set drive time.
