Adding/modifying a compartment’s group assignment
To add or modify a compartment record, follow these steps:
1. Open the desired configuration file in a text editor.
2. Using the syntax shown below:
#!SCOMP:COMPARTMENT_NAME:{GROUP | (NONE)}
and explained in the section “Compartment record syntax” (page 75):
a. Add or modify a line specifying a compartment name.
b. Add or modify the group—or replace it with (NONE).
3. Save the file and exit your editor.
4. 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}
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 application manager if it is not already enabled:
#prmconfig -e APPL
Alternatively, enable all PRM resource managers using prmconfig -e without any additional
arguments:
#prmconfig -e
