Kernel Parameters.

sekar parthasarathy — Tue, 14 Aug 2001 12:41:19 GMT

hi,

we have K-class Servers with 10.20 and 11.00
upgrading the servers from 10.20 to 11.00.
we want to compare the Kernel Parameters on
both, from HP-UX 11.00 servers using kmtune -S
able to get all tuneable parameters with forumla, is there any way to get the same type
of output from 10.20 with forumla too.

Thanks in advance.

sekar.

Hi Sekar,

I don't believe there is any "command" equivalent to kmtune on 10.20. sysdef only analyzes the currently running system but does not give the default values. But one of the ways is to write a script that parses the file /var/sam/boot.config (for both 10.20 and 11.00) which contains the kernel parameters along with their min-max and default values.

-HTH

Hi,

you can use sysdef on 10.20 and 11.0

Hi, sekar

advise you not to upgrade, it will be failure.
we tried many times, all the times failed, better to do cold installation. if you would like to give a try, have a backup

Hi Sekhar

The harder way the better , take o/p from the SAM ---> Kernel paramters and compare it line by line , ie is how we do here too and it is better since ther are many parameters not there in 10.20 , also try fresh install rather than upgrade.
