Solaris System Configuration Requirements

A Solaris system that is running the Master Server requires the following /etc/system settings.


Note –

If you are using the Solaris 9 or Solaris 10 OS, you cannot change the values for shmsys:shminfo_shmmin and shmsys:shminfo_shmseg. If you are using the Solaris 10 OS, you cannot change the values for shmsys:shminfo_shmmax, shmsys:shminfo_shmmni, semsys:seminfo_semmns, and semsys:seminfo_semvmx.

The default values for these settings are acceptable. All values specified in the Minimum Value column refer to megabytes (MBs).
