Solaris Tunable Parameters Reference Manual

sysdef Command

The sysdef command provides the values of System V IPC settings, STREAMS tunables, process resource limits, and portions of the tune and v structures. For example, the sysdef “Tunable Parameters” section from on a 512-Mbyte SunTM UltraTM 80 system is as follows:


10387456        maximum memory allowed in buffer cache (bufhwm)
    7930        maximum number of processes (v.v_proc)
      99        maximum global priority in sys class (MAXCLSYSPRI)
    7925        maximum processes per user id (v.v_maxup)
      30        auto update time limit in seconds (NAUTOUP)
      25        page stealing low water mark (GPGSLO)
       5        fsflush run rate (FSFLUSHR)
      25        minimum resident memory for avoiding deadlock (MINARMEM)
      25        minimum swapable memory for avoiding deadlock (MINASMEM)
