Hi,
the documentation of Postgres 9.0 still refers to editing /etc/system to configure semaphores on Solaris
(http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.0/static/kernel-resources.html):
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=0x2000000set shmsys:shminfo_shmmin=1set shmsys:shminfo_shmmni=256set shmsys:shminfo_shmseg=256set semsys:seminfo_semmap=256set semsys:seminfo_semmni=512set semsys:seminfo_semmns=512set semsys:seminfo_semmsl=32
Searching, I found this method is no more supported since Solaris 10, and the file is completely ignored.
Is it still necessary to configure these parameters under IllumOS/OI? How should I do it?
Thanx,
Gabriele.
