A realtime administrator can change the behavior of the realtime portion of the scheduler by reconfiguring the config_rt_dptbl at any time. Two methods are described here.
The first method is to reconfigure the config_rt_dptbl parameter table with a loadable module that contains a new dispatch table loaded at boot time. The module containing the dispatch table is a separate module. This is the only method that can be used to change the number of realtime priority levels or the set of global scheduling priorities used by the realtime class. Note that changing the config_rt_dptbl affects the realtime processes that you set after the table gets updated.
A second method for examining or modifying the realtime parameter table on a running system is through using the dispadmin(1M) command. Invoking dispadmin for the realtime class allows retrieval of the current rt_quantum values in the current config_rt_dptbl configuration from the kernel's in-core table. When overwriting the current in-core table, the configuration file used for input to dispadmin must conform to the specific format described in the manual page for config_rt_dptbl found in the man Pages(1M): System Administration Commands.
Following is an example of prioritized processes rtdpent_t with their associated time quantum config_rt_dptbl[] value as they might appear in config_rt_dptbl[].
