Conﬁguring PRM

Chapter 7 151

Adding/modifying a Unix group’s PRM group assignment

To add or modify a Unix group record, follow these steps:

Step 1. Open the desired conﬁguration ﬁle in a text editor.

Step 2. Using the syntax shown below:

#!UXGRP:UNIX_GROUP_NAME:{GROUP | (NONE)}

and explained in the section “Unix group record syntax” on page 149:

a. Add or modify a line specifying a Unix group name.

b. Add or modify the group—or replace it with (NONE).

Step 3. Save the ﬁle and exit your editor.

Step 4. 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 5. Enable PRM’s application manager if it is not already enabled:

# prmconfig -e APPL

Alternatively, enable all PRM resource managers using prmconfig -e

without any additional arguments:

# prmconfig -e
