Changes
added Units and System-wide limits
degradation for other VEs.
Both these configuration requirements are discussed in [[UBC systemwide configuration#Allocated memory]].
== Units ==
<code>Oomguarpages</code> and <code>privvmpages</code>
values are measured in [[memory page]]s.
For other secondary parameters, the values are in bytes.
== System-wide limits ==
All secondary parameters are related to memory.
Total limits on memory-related parameters must not exceed the physical
resources of the computer.
The restrictions on the configuration of memory-related parameters are listed
in [[UBC systemwide configuration]].
Those restrictions are very important, because their violation may
allow any Virtual Environment cause the whole system to hang.
