If the system was not booted after the last time the configuration parameters were
changed, then the displayed values will not reflect the actual system set-up. For
more information about using sxconfig, refer to the on-line man page.
The sxconfig command resides in the directory /platform/
SUNW,SPARCstation-10,SX/sbin; the shell environment variable PATH must
include this directory. To find out whether the PATH environment variable includes
the /platform/SUNW,SPARCstation-10,SX/sbin directory, type:
Your search path will be displayed. An example:
If the line displayed does not include /platform/SUNW,SPARCstation-10,SX/
sbin, enter the following if you are in either the Bourne shell or the Korn shell:
followed by:
if you are in the Bourne shell.
If you are in the C shell, enter:
If 16 MBytes of memory must be reserved, enter:
On a system configured with 16 MByte DSIMMs, the maximum amount of SXDRAM
that can be reserved in a single block is 16 MBytes. On such systems, when more
than 16 MBytes of memory must be reserved for SXDRAM, the sxconfig command
