- Range
Number of bytes in one page (8192 for sun4u or sun4v systems, 4096 for all other systems) to 25 percent of the available kernel memory at the time TMPFS was first used.
- Units
Bytes
- Dynamic?
Yes
- Validation
None
- When to Change
Increase if the following message is displayed on the console or written in the messages file: tmp_memalloc: tmpfs over memory limit The current amount of memory used by TMPFS for its data structures is held in the tmp_kmemspace field. This field can be examined with a kernel debugger.

tmpfs:tmpfs_minfree
- Description
Defines the minimum amount of swap space that TMPFS leaves for the rest of the system.

- Range
0 to maximum swap space size
- Units
Pages

Yes
- Validation
