Setting Parameters in the

/etc/system

File

To configure the

qfe

driver parameters for all

SUNW,qfe

devices in the system so

that the parameter variables are always effective (even after rebooting the system),
enter the parameter variables in the

/etc/system

file. When you reboot the system,

the system reads the

/etc/system

file and sets these parameter variables in the

qfe

module in the operating system kernel.

TABLE B-9

lists the variables you can set in the

/etc/system

file.

These parameter values, described in “Driver Parameter Values and Definitions” on
page 24,
are applicable to all

SUNW,qfe

devices on the system. See

TABLE B-1

through

TABLE B-8

for the descriptions of these parameters.
