Administrator Tools

  • /usr/sbin/zing-llpmem Low-level Azul Zulu Prime JVM memory and account manipulation. Not meant to be invoked directly by the user.

  • /usr/sbin/zing-configure-pmem High-level Azul Zulu Prime JVM memory manipulation. Only expert users should consider running this directly. Normally, this tool is called automatically by higher-level tools. Reads pmem.conf configuration file. Invokes zing-llpmem to do low-level work. Called by zing-memory init script.

  • /usr/sbin/system-config-zing-memory Azul Zulu Prime JVM memory configuration wizard. Users who want to quickly get started with Azul Zulu Prime JVM should run this tool. Creates pmem.conf file. See Configure Azul Zulu Prime JVM Memory.

  • /usr/sbin/system-config-zing-core-pattern Azul Zulu Prime JVM core bundling configuration wizard. For automatically generating Azul Zulu Prime JVM core bundles, see Troubleshooting Azul Zulu Prime JVM.

--> /etc/init.d/zing-memory start
--> /sbin/insmod .../zing_mm.ko
--> /usr/sbin/zing-configure-pmem
--> /usr/sbin/zing-llpmem

ZST Boot Sequence File Relationships

After installation and configuration, on bootup, the zing-memory init script loads the kernel module and partition memory. The following flow diagram shows how the boot sequence files and tools relate to one another:

 
/etc/init.d/zing-memory start
--> /sbin/insmod .../zing_mm.ko
--> /usr/sbin/zing-configure-pmem
--> /usr/sbin/zing-llpmem

ZST Update Software File Relationships

The following flow diagram shows how the update files and tools relate to one another:

 
/usr/sbin/system-config-zing-memory
--> /etc/init.d/zing-memory start
--> /sbin/insmod .../zing_mm.ko
--> /usr/sbin/zing-configure-pmem
--> /usr/sbin/zing-llpmem
