In Solaris 7.0 (Intel platform), the operating system allocates only 36
pages of 4K physically contiguous memory. The driver needs about 130K
of physically contiguous memory per NIC.
In order to use more than one NIC the OS has to allocate more memory.
This can be done by setting an OS system variable l o m e m p a g e s
l o m e m p a g e s l o m e m p a g e s l o m e m p a g e s l o m e m p a g e s in the
file / e t c / s y s t e m / e t c / s y s t e m / e t c / s y s t e m / e t c / s y s t e m / e t c / s y s t e m. For example, when you install four NICs in a Solaris 7
system, the physically contiguous memory is calculated as follows:
4 NICs * 130K = 520 K or 130 pages of 4K is required.
Since this memory can be used by other drivers in the system, 200 pages
of 4K memory is allocated. Add the following line in file / e t c / s y s t e m
/ e t c / s y s t e m / e t c / s y s t e m / e t c / s y s t e m / e t c / s y s t e m:
