Tru64 Unix 中的主題 Which OS parameters should be modified after addon RAM?

Which OS parameters should be modified after addon RAM?

ES80 原本是 RAM 10G, 打算加大到 48G, 請問除了 swap space 要跟著加大之外, 是否還有哪些 /etc/sysconfigtab 中的參數要修改呢? 是否有HP官方文件可參考?

Thanks a lot

Eric

執行 sys_check 對系統效能會有很大影響嗎?

Hi Eric,

It has more kernel parameters need to increase if (necessary) AP requirement.

Such as,

vm:

vm_page_free_target = 4096

..

proc:

max_proc_per_user=XXXX

max_threads_per_user=XXXX

per_proc_data_size=XXXX

max_per_proc_data_size=XXXX

per_proc_address_space=XXXX

max_per_proc_address_space=XXXX

maxusers=2048 (or 4096)

..

Please see the related VLM information at the chapter 8 "Managing System Resource Allocation" from the following document.

http://h30097.www3.hp.com/docs/base_doc/DOCUMENTATION/V51B_ACRO_DUX/ARH9GCTE.PDF

Or the page 75 on "Tuning Large-Memory Systems". See

http://h30097.www3.hp.com/docs/base_doc/DOCUMENTATION/V51_PDF/ARH9GBTE.PDF

PS: Running the "sys_check" just has a little performance impact. Please don't worry to run it except you have a old OS patch kit on the Tru64 UNIX.

Best regards,

Richard.

Hello Richard,

Our server is Tru64 5.1B, so I can run sys_check on it?

Thanks

Eric

Hi Eric,

It's OK to run sys_check on V5.1B.

But I hope it has a new OS patch kit 4 (or 5) on it.

Because it maybe gotten a Kernel Memory Fault (KMF) panic while processing one tape I/O on V5.1B/PK2 (or PK1) without apply the cam_tape.mod patch.

How to trace the patch kit on V5.1B?

# grep AS00 /var/adm/patch/log/event.log

KITNAME..T64V51BB26AS0005-20050502. OSF540

# ===> It means the PK5 on V5.1B

Best regards,

Richard.

# grep AS00 /var/adm/patch/log/event.log

KITNAME..T64V51BB25AS0004-20040616. OSF540, TCR540

--------------

So it means the PK4 on V5.1B?

Yes. Please see the Tru64 UNIX and TruCluster Patch Kit Map on
