NAME
     miser - Miser Resource Manager

SYNOPSIS
     miser [-vd] -cmaxcpus -mmaxmemory -fconfigfile

DESCRIPTION
     Miser starts the miser daemon. Miser is a resource management facility
     that can be used to balance batch and interactive usage.

OPTIONS
     The following options are supported:

     -v        Verbose. This option results in additional output. It is useful
               in conjunction with the -d option to help in diagnosing Miser
               configuration problems.

     -d        This option requests debug output. Miser does not relinquish
               the terminal.

     -m maxmemory
               This is the maximum amount of memory that miser can use.  It is
               also the maximum memory that any resource segment of the system
               queue can reserve.  Memory reserved for miser is allocated from
               physical memory or from swap space.

     -c maxcpus
               This is the maximum number of CPUs that miser can use. It is
               also the maximum number of CPUs that any resource segment of
               the system queue can reserve.

     -f configfile
               This option specifies the location of the configuration file.

REMARKS
     If -d is not specified output is directed to the system log. See
     syslogd(1M).
