This program writes kernel parameters, previously saved in a configuration
file, to the /proc filesystem. This enables kernel performance to be
adjusted without recompiling the kernel.
OPTIONS
-c, --config configfile
Specify an alternative config file. The default is
/etc/systune.conf
-h, --help
Print a short explanation of syntax to standard output.
-v, --verbose
Verbose mode: cause non-existent paths in the configuration to generate
error output to standard error. Without this option, erroneous paths are
discarded silently.
CONFIGURATION FILE FORMAT
Each definition takes a single line, in the form
path:definition,
where
path
must begin with
/proc/sys/.
Paths beginning with any other sequence are silently ignored.
Comments are introduced by the character #. The whole line from
the # character onwards is discarded, together with any whitespace
immediately preceding it.
Blank lines are ignored.
FILES
/etc/systune.conf
A file with saved kernel parameters. It is possible to generate this file
with the
systunedump (8)
command.
