<para>
In Solaris 10 and OpenSolaris, the default shared memory and
semaphore settings are good enough for most
<productname>PostgreSQL</> applications. Solaris now defaults
to a <varname>SHMMAX</> of one-quarter of system <acronym>RAM</>. If
you need to increase this in order to set shared memory settings
slightly higher, you should use a project setting associated
with the <literal>postgres</> user. For example, run the
following as <literal>root</>:
<programlisting>
projadd -c "PostgreSQL DB User" -K "project.max-shm-memory=(privileged,8GB,deny)" -U postgres -G postgres user.postgres
</programlisting>
</para>
<para>
This command adds the <literal>user.postgres</> project and
raises the shared memory maximum for the <literal>postgres</>
user to 8GB, and takes effect the next time that user logs
in, or when you restart <productname>PostgreSQL</> (not reload).
The above assumes that <productname>PostgreSQL</> is run by
the <literal>postgres</> user in the <literal>postgres</>
group. No server reboot is required.
</para>
<para>
Other recommended kernel setting changes for database servers which will
have a large number of connections are:
<programlisting>
project.max-shm-ids=(priv,32768,deny)
project.max-sem-ids=(priv,4096,deny)
project.max-msg-ids=(priv,4096,deny)
</programlisting>

Additionally, if you are running <productname>PostgreSQL</>
url="http://sunsite.uakom.sk/sunworldonline/swol-09-1997/swol-09-insidesolaris.html"></>
inside a zone, you may need to raise the zone resource usage
for information on shared memory under
limits as well. See "Chapter2: Projects and Tasks" in the
<productname>Solaris</>.

information on <literal>projects</> and <command>prctl</>.
