Cluster Management
• New build_cmgr_script(1M) command
The build_cmgr_script(1M) command generates a cmgr(1M)
script from the cluster database. The script can be used later to
recreate the cluster database after performing a cdbreinit. For
further information, see the build_cmgr_script(1M) man page.
Device Drivers
• Device drivers and kernel threads
For the IRIX 6.5.17 release, device drivers can create kernel threads
not associated with particular interrupts to act as daemons and do
background processing. For more information, see the
drv_thread_create(3D) man page and the IRIX Device Driver
Programmer’s Guide, 007-0911-190.
Resource Management
• New cpuset(1) options
For 6.5.17, two new options have been added to the cpuset
command. The -M option allows the user to move a process or group
of processes and their associated memory from one cpuset to another.
The -T option allows the user to move a process or group of
processes but not their memory from one cpuset to another. For more
specific information, see the cpuset(1) man page.
