This section lists all of the resource pool functions. Each function has a link to the man page and a short description of the function's purpose. The functions are divided into two groups, depending on whether the function performs an action or a query:
Functions for Operating on Resource Pools and Associated Elements
Functions for Querying Resource Pools and Associated Elements
The imported interfaces for libpool for swap sets is identical to the ones defined in this document.
The following interfaces perform actions related to pools and the associated elements. A man page is available for each interface name.
