Installing and Administering Solaris Container Manager 3.6.1

ProcedureTo Modify a Project Using a Property Sheet

Use this procedure to make changes to the resource pool or resource reservations for only one project. If you want to make the same change to multiple projects, see Modifying Projects With a Resource Change Job.

Steps
  1. If the Container Manager GUI is not already open, access it as described in To Start the Container Manager GUI.

  2. Choose from the following methods to select the desired project instance:

    • If you know the name of the host that the project is associated with, select the host name from the navigation window in the Hosts view. Then select the Projects tab in the right pane to access a table that lists all projects that are associated with the host.

    • If you know the name of the project, select its name from the navigation window in the Containers view. The Hosts Associated with this Container Definition table appears in the right pane.


    Note –

    All projects must be deactivated before you can change the properties. If any projects show the status as Active, use the Deactivate button in the table before continuing. The tables in both views have this button.


  3. Select the name of the project or host from the table, depending on the method that you selected in the previous step.

    The property sheet for the project instance is displayed.

  4. Make the desired changes.


    Note –

    (On Solaris 10) It is not possible to change the resource pool of a project.


    • Resource Pool Definition. To change the pool that the project is associated with, select from the drop-down menu.

    • CPU Reservation (CPU shares). Provide the new value in the text box as an integer.

    • Memory Cap (MB). Provide the new value in the text box.

    • Shared Memory (MB). Provide the new value in the text box.

  5. Click Save.

    The requested changes to the resource reservations have been saved.

  6. (Optional) To reactivate the project, return to the table that you used in Step 3 and click Activate.
