Kernel reconfigured - yet kmtune shows different planned value

Geoff Wild — Wed, 28 Sep 2005 10:16:02 GMT

Can someone tell me what I missed?

I reconfigured my kernel like so:

cd /stand/build
/usr/lbin/sysadm/system_prep -s system
vi system (made changes and saved the file)
mk_kernel -s system
kmupdate
cd /
shutdown_ham -r now

Changes I made:

dbc_max_pct from 7 to 5
dbc_min_pct from 5 to 4

Current settings are correct (verified with adb), and in SAM look like right as well:

│Configurable Parameters 0 of 171 selected│
│──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────│
│ Current Pending Associated │
│ Name Value Value Type Module │
│┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │
││ create_fastlinks 0 0 Static N/A ^ │
││ dbc_max_pct 5 5 Static N/A │
││ dbc_min_pct 4 4 Static N/A

Yet, kmtune:

Parameter Current Dyn Planned Module Version
===============================================================================
dbc_max_pct 5 - 7
dbc_min_pct 4 - 5

What gives?

Hi,
open /stand/system and verify that the new values are in place. Just a thought!

Check /stand/system - still at 7.....

So, I did a:

kmtune -s dbc_max_pct=5

# kmtune -l -q dbc_max_pct
Parameter: dbc_max_pct
Current: 5
Planned: 5
Default: 50
Minimum: -
Module: -
Version: -
Dynamic: No

Seems to have done the trick - will know for sure this Saturday - as I'm patching.

Doing the kmtune -s dbc_mac_pct=5 solved my issue.
