 SYNOPSIS
      /usr/sbin/sysdef [kernel [master]]

 DESCRIPTION
      The command sysdef analyzes the currently running system and reports
      on its tunable configuration parameters.  kernel is the file used to
      retrieve the kernel namelist; if not specified, /stand/vmunix is used.
      master is not used, but can be specified for standards compliance.

      For each configuration parameter, the following information is
      printed:

           NAME           The name and description of the parameter.

           VALUE          The current value of the parameter.

           BOOT           The value of the parameter at boot time, if
                          different from the current value.

           MIN            The minimum allowed value of the parameter, if
                          any.

           MAX            The maximum allowed value of the parameter, if
                          any.

           UNITS          Where appropriate, the units by which the
                          parameter is measured.

                          following flag is defined:

           sysdef /os_file
