3. Save the file and exit your editor.
4. Load the configuration using one of the commands below.
To initialize, moving user processes to the owners’ initial groups and moving applications to
their assigned groups, use the command:
#prmconfig -i [-fconfigfile] {-s | -c}
To keep the existing assignments of users, processes, and groups, use the command:
#prmconfig -k [-fconfigfile] {-s | -c}
Use the -f configfile option to specify a file other than the default /etc/prmconf. The -s
option displays warnings regarding the configuration file. (The -c option displays a subset
of the -s warnings.)
5. Enable PRM’s memory manager if it is not already enabled:
#prmconfig -e MEM
Alternatively, enable all PRM resource managers using prmconfig -e without any additional
arguments:
#prmconfig -e
Removing private memory shares
To remove a memory record manually:
1. Open the configuration file in a text editor.
2. Remove the line corresponding to the memory record you wish to remove. Memory records
have the following form:
#!PRM_MEM:{PRMID|GROUP}:SHARES:[MAX]:::[[IMPORT]:[EXPORT]:]
3. (Optional) Adjust the memory shares of the remaining records to ensure their resource
allocations are as desired.
4. Ensure there is still a one-to-one correspondence between memory records and group/CPU
records if there are any memory records still present in the configuration.
5. Save the file and exit the text editor.
6. Load the configuration using one of the following commands:
To initialize, moving user processes to the owners’ initial groups and moving applications to
their assigned groups, use the command:
#prmconfig -i [-fconfigfile] {-s | -c}

option displays warnings regarding the configuration file. (The -c option displays a subset
of the -s warnings.)
