Commands Used With the Resource Pools Facility
The commands described in the following table provide the primary administrative interface to
the pools facility. For information on using these commands on a system that
has zones enabled, see Resource Pools Used in Zones.

Description |
pooladm(1M) |
Enables or disables the pools facility
on your system. Activates a particular configuration or removes the current configuration and
returns associated resources to their default status. If run without options, pooladm prints out
the current dynamic pools configuration. |
poolbind(1M) |
Enables the manual binding of projects, tasks, and
processes to a resource pool. |
poolcfg(1M) |
Provides configuration operations on pools and sets. Configurations created using
this tool are instantiated on a target host by using pooladm. If run
with the info subcommand argument to the -c option, poolcfg displays information
about the static configuration at /etc/pooladm.conf. If a file name argument is added, this
command displays information about the static configuration held in the named file. For
example, poolcfg -c info /tmp/newconfig displays information about the static configuration contained in
the file /tmp/newconfig. |
poold(1M) |
The pools system daemon. The daemon uses system targets and
observable statistics to preserve the system performance goals specified by the administrator. If unable
to take corrective action when goals are not being met, poold logs the
condition. |
poolstat(1M) |
Displays statistics for pool-related resources. Simplifies performance analysis and provides information that supports
system administrators in resource partitioning and repartitioning tasks. Options are provided for examining specified
pools and reporting resource set-specific statistics. |
A library API is provided by libpool (see the libpool(3LIB) man page). The
library can be used by programs to manipulate pool configurations.
