Table 21 prminitconfig options/parameters
DescriptionOptions/parameters
Configure the PRM GUI for SIM.
You must run prminitconfig -a so that you can access PRM’s interface in
SIM.
Run prminitconfig -a after SIM is installed.
NOTE: If you installed HP Virtual Server Environment Management Software
A.03.00.00 or later and ran vseinitconfig -a, it ran prminitconfig
-a for you, assuming PRM was already installed. If PRM was not installed when
you ran vseinitconfig -a, run vseinitconfig -a again instead of
running prminitconfig -a directly. (Be aware that running
vseinitconfig -a will restart SIM.)
PRM’s interface in SIM is available by following the links:
Optimize -> Process Resource Manager -> Configure PRM Groups
-a
Unconfigure the PRM GUI for SIM, removing the Configure PRM Groups link
from SIM.
This command is run when PRM is removed from the system.
-r

prmlist
Syntax:
prmlist -V
prmlist [-h] [-w] [-p] [-m] [-g [group]] [-u [user| +netgroup]] [-s
[compartment]] [-a [application]] [-d [LogicalVolumeGroup]] [-G
[unix_group]]
Availability: Any user can run the prmlist command.
The prmlist command displays information from the current PRM configuration file, including
PRM group, memory, user, disk, compartment, application, and Unix group record information.
Table 22 explains the available options.
Table 22 prmlist user options
DescriptionOption
Lists all the configuration file information.No options
Displays version information and exits.-V
Includes parent hierarchical groups in output. )-h
Prints the PRM group names and application paths in wide-column
format, exceeding the 30-column default if necessary to avoid
clipping any names or paths.
-w
Displays the number of cores and core IDs for PSET PRM groups.-p
Displays the MRG fields.-m
Displays all PRM group and memory record information.
If group is specified, displays only information for the requested
PRM group. Specify a group by its name or PRMID.
