Resource management functionality enables you to control how applications use available system resources. You can:
Use resource management features to treat the workloads generated by different applications on your system individually. You can:
To implement a system configuration using the resource management facilities, set resource control attributes for each project entry in the project database or name service project table.
The table describes the resource constrained by each control, and it also identifies the default units used by the project database for that resource. The default units are of two types. Quantities represent a limited amount, and indexes represent a maximum valid identifier. Thus, project.cpu-shares specifies the number of shares the project is entitled to, while process.max-file-descriptor specifies the highest file number that can be assigned to a process by the open(2) system call.
