Solaris Resource Manager 1.3 System Administration Guide

Boot Sequence Events

The sequence in which events occur while switching to multi-user mode is particularly important in Solaris Resource Manager. The following sequence of steps correctly establishes the Solaris Resource Manager system:

  1. Configure and enable Solaris Resource Manager using the srmadm command.

    At this point, the limits database will be opened and the SHR scheduler will be enabled. See Enabling Solaris Resource Manager Using srmadm for information on this process.

  2. Assign the 'lost' (srmlost) and 'idle' (srmidle) lnodes.

  3. Start the Solaris Resource Manager daemon.

    See Starting the Solaris Resource Manager Daemon for information on this procedure.

  4. Start other system daemons on an appropriate lnode.

The default script used in Steps 1 through 3 of the above process is shown in the appendix.
