How to Set Multiple Controls on a Project

The /etc/project file can contain settings for multiple resource controls for each project as well as multiple threshold values for each control. Threshold values are defined in action clauses, which are comma-separated for multiple values.

1. Become superuser or assume an equivalent role.

   Roles contain authorizations and privileged commands. For more information about roles, see Using the Solaris Management Tools With RBAC (Task Map) in System Administration Guide: Basic Administration.

2. Use the projmod command with the -s and -K options to set resource controls on project x-files:

   # projmod -s -K 'task.max-lwps=(basic,10,none),(privileged,500,deny); process.max-file-descriptor=(basic,128,deny)' x-filesone line in file

   The following controls are set:

   • A basic control with no action on the maximum LWPs per task.

   • A privileged deny control on the maximum LWPs per task. This control causes any LWP creation that exceeds the maximum to fail, as shown in the previous example How to Set the Maximum Number of LWPs for Each Task in a Project.

   • A limit on the maximum file descriptors per process at the basic level, which forces the failure of any open call that exceeds the maximum.

3. View the entry in the file by using one of the following methods:

   • Type:

     # projects -l . . . x-files projid : 100 comment: "" users : (none) groups : (none) attribs: process.max-file-descriptor=(basic,128,deny) task.max-lwps=(basic,10,none),(privileged,500,deny) one line in file

   • Type:

     # cat etc/project . . . x-files:100::::process.max-file-descriptor=(basic,128,deny); task.max-lwps=(basic,10,none),(privileged,500,deny) one line in file
