How to Tune Memory Management Parameters

  1. Become superuser.

  2. Add a line to the /etc/system file using the following syntax.


    set tune:variable=value
    
  3. Verify the kernel parameter change.


    # grep parameter /etc/system
    
  4. Reboot the system.

    The kernel parses the /etc/system file during autoconfiguration and overrides the default value for the parameters specified in this file.
