HP-UX Secure Resource Partitions (SRP) A.02.00 Administrator's Guide

Default: 1.
PRM group memory shares
The number of virtual memory shares allocated for this
group. PRM determines the actual amount of memory
allocated for this group by calculating the number of shares
allocated for this group divided by the total memory shares
allocated.
Variable Name: prm_mem_shares.
Default: 10.
PRM group physical memory
The amount of physical memory allocated to this group
for shared memory. This value is specified in megabytes.
Variable Name: prm_phys_mem.
Default: 0 (no dedicated physical memory).
Configuration Data
By default, SRP creates a new PRM group using the SRP compartment name as the PRM group
name.
By default, the PRM group information is stored in the /etc/prmconf file. You can change the
filename by running the srp_setup utility, as described in Chapter 3 (page 25).
The network Service
The network service configures an IP interface for the compartment.
In most installations, you will want to create an IP interface for exclusive use by the compartment.
You do not have to use a dedicated network interface card for the compartment; you can create
a logical IP interface on a network interface card.
Input Data
SRP prompts for following data. You can also specify a variable name and value in the command
line, as described in “Creating an SRP Compartment or Adding Data to a Compartment” (page 67).
IP address
Specifies the IP address for the compartment. In most cases,
you will want to specify a new address (an address that is not
already configured for the system) and create an IP interface
that is used exclusively by the SRP compartment. The address
must be an address that is not already assigned to a Security
Containment or SRP compartment.
Variable Name: ip_address.
Valid Input: An IPv4 address in dotted-decimal notation or
an IPv6 address in colon-hexadecimal notation.
Default: None.
Network interface name
Specifies the primary or secondary network interface name
for the IP interface. A primary network interface name has
no IP index number (such as lan2), or an IP index number
set to 0 (such as lan2:0). A secondary network name has a
nonzero IP index number (such as lan2:1). Secondary
interfaces share the same physical network interface as the
corresponding primary interface. If you specify a primary
