Setting Up Resource Control in Solaris 10
In a Sun BigAdmin community-submitted tech tip by Victor Feng, readers are treated to some helpful hints they may need when setting up resource control for Zones in the Solaris 10 08/07, which was the first version that offered this control directly to users.
Tips passed along by Feng:
- Use cpu-shares to control zone computing resources.
- The swap property of capped-memory is virtual swap space, not physical swap space.
- A zone sometimes consumes more physical memory than the maximum limit.
For each of the above mentioned hints, Feng provides information and coding to make these aspects of zones work more effectively.
