Operating Systems Solaris How to find memory size on solaris zone Post 302278886 by incredible on Wednesday 21st of January 2009 11:14:11 AM

The amount of physical memory that a Zone uses cannot be constrained as it stands now, but Sun is working on a feature that will address this issue soon
however you can configure capped mem it like this:

zonecfg:my-zone> add capped-memory
zonecfg:zone:capped-memory> set physical=50m
zonecfg:zone:capped-memory> set swap=100m
zonecfg:zone:capped-memory> set locked=30m
zonecfg:zone:capped-memory> end

To change the max-swap resource do the following:

# prctl -n zone.max-swap -r -v 200M `pgrep -z <zone> init`To change the max-locked-memory resource do the following:

# prctl -n zone.max-locked-memory -r -v 100M `pgrep -z <zone> init`Changing the physical memory capping is a little different, you'll need to use the rcapadm command:

# rcapadm -z <zone> -m 100M

Later you can verify using
# zonecfg -z <zone>

NAME

       install-solaris - install the Solaris operating system

SYNOPSIS

       install-solaris

       install-solaris	invokes  the  Solaris  Install	program. Depending on graphical capability and available memory at the time of invocation,
       install-solaris invokes either a text-based installer or a graphical installer.

       The following minimum requirements for physical memory dictate which features are available during installation:

       For SPARC machines:

       128 MB

	   Minimum physical memory for all installation types

       128 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for windowing system

       384 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for graphical-based installation

       For x86 machines:

       256 MB

	   Minimum physical memory for all installation types

       256 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for windowing system

       512 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for graphical-based installation

       In some cases, even if the minimum physical memory is present, available virtual memory after system startup can limit the number  of  fea-
       tures available.

       install-solaris	exists	only  on  the Solaris installation media (CD or DVD) and should be invoked only from there. Refer to the  for more
       details.

       install-solaris allows installation of the operating system onto any standalone system. install-solaris loads the software available on the
       installation media. Refer to the  for disk space requirements.
