Hi,

i'm not sure what you mean exactly...

Code:
# vmo -L pinnable_frames
NAME                      CUR    DEF    BOOT   MIN    MAX    UNIT           TYPE
     DEPENDENCIES
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
pinnable_frames           592370        592370               4KB pages         S
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

where S = Static (If the parameter can never be changed)

regards

PS
Maybe this helps:
Code:
# vmo -h maxpin%
Help for tunable maxpin%:
Purpose:
Specifies the maximum percentage of real memory that can be pinned.
Values:
        Default: 90
        Range: 1 - 100
        Type: Dynamic
        Unit: % memory
Tuning:
Change if cannot pin memory, although free memory is available. If this value is changed, the new value should ensure that at least 4 MB of real memory will be left unpinned for use by the kernel. The vmo command converts maxpin% to the corresponding maxpin absolute value, which is the value used by the kernel. Change this parameter only in extreme situations, such as maximum-load benchmarking.
This Dynamic parameter will have its nextboot value written into the boot image if a bosboot command is issued.
