Solaris Containers : [ Solaris Zones | Solaris Resource Manager | Demonstration ]
This series of demonstrations of the new features of Solaris Containers in Solaris10 will assist you to understand the dynamic CPU allotment mechanism. The working environments used in these demonstrations are as follows.
Initial environment
CPU share ratio in the initial environment
CPU allotment tuning will change CPU share ratio of ZONE2, and of ZONE3
CPU share ratio of ZONE2 and ZONE3 in pool_2 will be changed from 1:1 to 2:1
In the demonstration1 environment two CPUs are moved from pool_2 to pool_1. As a result the CPU share ratio of ZONE1 increases.
The CPU share ratios of ZONE2, and ZONE3 go down, but the proportion between the two zones doesn't change (2:1).
Two CPUs are transferred from pool_2 to pool_1
