NCALLOUT and SEMMAP

[Kevin Carden]

I am fairly new to the UX environment, basically a book and alot of hands on installing hp-ux 11.23. I have been requested by one of our DBA's to define and set the following parameters.

NCALLOUT to 5012 and SEMMAP to 4098.

I do not see these parameters under the tunable kernel options. Are these even apart of 11.23? I see traffic on the site for ver 11.22 but no informaiton is given.

thanks for your help

kumtune

If the parameter is not displayed there then I would surmise that the parameter is now longer available for 11.23.

Note on the Oracle database. Just because its certified for 11.22 does not mean it will work on 11.23.

It is possible your DBA's are using the wrong documentation. It is also possible that they are trying to install a database not certified for the OS.

You need to check on that.

Not having a lot of time working with 11.23, they may have taken these parameters away from us admins.

You should be able to see them using kmtune or SAM (unless those parameters are no longer used in 11.23). You might want to consider using kcweb. Check the HP Software depot. It is a tool that you can use for kernel management.

See if they are visible in SAM

Thanks for all the responses,

I have checked the SAM and these options are not in the list of tuneable kernel options. We have the right version of Oracle and I believe you are right when you said that the DBA's are probablly using an older version of the Oracale parameters. I informed them that I was not able to find these settings, but just wanted to run it by those that have a greater knowledge of UX to make sure I wasn't missing it somewhere.

thanks again for your quick response.
