Dynamic Resource Pools

Dynamic resource pools dynamically adjust the resource allocation of each resource pool to meet established system performance goals. Dynamic resource pools simplify and reduce the number of decisions required from a system administrator. Adjustments are automatically made to preserve the system performance goals specified by a system administrator.

You can create, modify, and delete dynamic resource pools for Solaris 10 systems. After you configure dynamic resource pool constraints, such as the minimum and maximum CPUs, utilization objective, locality objective, and CPU share, the Container Manager agent dynamically adjusts the pool size to the conditions of resource availability and consumption.

Resource pool configuration is saved on both the agent and service database.
