Configuring and enabling PRM on the command line
Configuring PRM
Chapter 7126
Step 6. Load the configuration using one of the following commands:
To initialize, moving user processes to the owners’ initial groups and
moving applications to their assigned groups, use the command:
# prmconfig -i [-f configfile] {-s | -c}
To keep the existing assignments of users, processes, and groups, use the
command:
# prmconfig -k [-f configfile] {-s | -c}
Use the -f configfile option to specify a file other than the default
/etc/prmconf. The -s option displays warnings regarding the
configuration file. (The -c option displays a subset of the -s warnings.)
Step 7. Enable PRM’s disk bandwidth manager if it is not already enabled:
# prmconfig -e DISK
Alternatively, enable all PRM resource managers using prmconfig -e
without any additional arguments:
# prmconfig -e
Controlling applications
You can specify the PRM group each application can run in as discussed
in the following sections:
• Adding/modifying an application’s group assignment
You can remove an application’s group assignment as discussed in the
following sections:
• Removing an application’s group assignment
Duplicate application records
Be careful to avoid duplicating application records. A duplicate record
specifies the same application and alternate name (if any) as another
record, but uses a different PRM group. The application is the same if
the file ID or pathname matches. The file ID is based on the file system
device and inode number.
