13Description
14-----------
15This module provided access to the Solaris Project subsystem, which is part of
16the Solaris resource management infrastructure.
17
18For more information on Solaris Projects, see the project(5) manpage and the
19following on-line documentation:

24
25An example of how this module might be used is to put the Apache httpd under
26resource management control, so that the total resources used by Apache can be
27limited using Solaris resource management.  Assuming mod_perl is installed for
28Apache, and a project with the appropriate limits has been established
29(see documentation references above), the following code in the Apache Perl
30startup file will place Apache under RM control:
31
32use Sun::Solaris::Project qw(:ALL);
33my $user = getpwuid(Apache->server->uid());
34setproject(getdefaultproj($user), $user, 0) == 0 || die($!);
