config(1M) config(1M)
blocks The number (in decimal) of 1K-byte disk blocks in the swap area. For this swap dev-
ice specification, only the blocks parameter is optional. Zero is the default for auto-
configuration. If blocks is zero, the entire remainder of the device is automatically
configured in as swap area. If blocks is non-zero, its absolute value is treated as an
upper bound for the size of the swap area. Then, if the swap area size has actually
been cut back, the sign of blocks determines whether blocks remains as is, resulting in
the swap area being adjacent to the reserved area, or whether blocks is bumped by the
size of the unused area, resulting in the swap area being adjacent to the tail of the
device.
swap hw_path options
Configure the swap device at the location specified using the options specified. The hw_path
argument is interpreted as it is in the previous example.
The options field is used to specify a section. It is only offered for backwards compatibility pur-
poses. For example,
s3 would put the swap area on section 3.
swap lvol
Configure swap on a logical volume.
swap none
Configure the kernel with no swap device.
(2) Dump device(s) specification
One or more dump specifications are allowed. If a dump specification is not given, then the primary
swap area will be used.
dump hw_path [options]
Configure the dump device location and its size as specified. Arguments are interpreted as fol-
lows:
hw_path The hardware path representing the device to configure as a dump device or the
string default may be used to indicate using the primary swap area.
options This field is used to specify a section. It is only offered for backwards compatibility
purposes. For example
s3 would put the dump area at section 3.
dump lvol
Configure dump on a logical volume.
dump none
Configure the kernel with no dump device.
(3) Device driver to hardware path
One or more driver to hardware path specifications is allowed. If a driver statement is provided, the
specified software module is forced into the kernel I/O system at the given hardware path. This can
be used to make the system recognize a device that could not be recognized automatically.
driver hw_path driver_name
Bind the driver into the kernel I/O system at the given hardware path. Arguments are inter-
preted as follows:
hw_path The hardware path representing the device to bind the software with.
driver_name
The name of the software module to bind into the kernel at the specified hardware
path.
(4) System parameters
These parameters should not be modified without a full understanding of the ramifications of doing so
(see the Managing Systems and Workgroups manual).
Each line contains two fields. The first field can contain up to 20 characters; the second field up to 60
characters. Each line is independent, optional, and written in the following format:
