Kernel parameter templates in 11.31

PVR — Sun, 18 May 2008 06:09:50 GMT

Hi !

We got some new servers with HP-UX 11.31. I want to make kernel parameters of one server identical to one other server.

I checked for the kernel configuration templates, which is available in HP-UX 11i. But I couldn't find it.

Can anyone help me on this ?

Thanks in advance :)

Hi,

Look at the kconfig (1m) command.

Configure the kernel how you want it on one system, then use "kconfig -e" to export to a file and "kconfig -i" to import on the other host. Full details on the man page.

Thanks Duncan

I did the following commands;

kconfig -e /tmp/template

copied the template to second machine and executed the following commands.

kconfig -V -i /tmp/template

I checked for an option to check and change 'only' kernel tunables and I couldn't find it.

Did the above command do what you wanted? Or did the -V cause it to fail?
I suppose you could edit what's in the template file.

Hi

The above command did what I wanted.

I didn't try editing the file.

Thanks
