Setting Parameters Using the qfe.conf File
To set the qfe driver parameters for qfe devices so that the parameter variables stay
in effect after rebooting the system, create a qfe.conf file in your system’s
/kernel/drv directory.
You can also create a qfe.conf file when you need to set parameters for a specific
qfe device in the system. The parameters you set are read and write parameters listed
in “Device Driver Parameter Values and Definitions” on page 59, and in
TABLE B-9.
The man pages for prtconf(1M), system(4) and driver.conf(4) include
additional details about driver configuration files.
