Changing the Scheduling Priority of Processes With priocntl

The scheduling priority of a process is the priority it is assigned by the process scheduler, according to scheduling policies. The dispadmin command lists the default scheduling policies. See "Scheduler Configuration", for information on the dispadmin command.

The priocntl command can be used to assign processes to a priority class and to manage process priorities. See the section called "How to Designate a Process Priority" for instructions on using the priocntl command to manage processes.
