LONG_MAX
All the existing parameters are listed in the [[UBC parameters table]].
By importance, the parameters are divided into 3 groups: [[UBC primary parameters|primary parameters]],[[UBC secondary parameters|secondary parameters ]] and [[UBC auxiliary parameters|auxiliary parameters]].
More detailed description of the parameters and the resource control
mechanisms governed by the parameters is provided belowin the appropriate articles.
== General information about all parameters ==
<li>The parameters control
how the resources are distributed between Virtual Environments containers in terms of* limits, i.e. upper boundaries on what this Virtual Environment container can consume, and* guarantees, i.e. mechanisms ensuring that this Virtual Environment container can get the assigned “resources” regardless of the activity and the amount of resources required by other Virtual Environmentscontainers.
The parameters containing “<code>guar</code>” in their names,
i.e. <code>vmguarpages</code> and <code>oomguarpages</code> are Virtual Environmentcontainer's
guarantees.
They guarantee availability of resources and certain service level
The <code>limit</code> of <code>vmguarpages</code> and <code>oomguarpages</code> should be
set to the maximal value (i.e. <code>2147483647</code> on a 32-bit architecture)[[LONG_MAX]].
</li>
The properties of parameters are summarized in [[UBC parameter properties]].
