!!Toggle Solaris memory allocator
This selection is will apply special configuration for older eDirectory versions (< 8.7.3.4) to improve performance and stability. This option must be run on all Solaris 9 servers just to make eDirectory load and function.
The option should be executed again anytime a patch is installed on the server (some patches overwrite these settings).
The latest information [from Novell|http://support.novell.com/techcenter/search/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=10095892html&sliceId=&dialogID=1448798] recommends that __Solaris 9__ eDirectory servers be configured to use the __LIBUMEM__ memory allocator.
Available in build versions >= 20050816.
The toggle now detects the required OS patches and prompts to enable LIBUMEM. An example run is shown below.
