These are documented in the 11.23 manpages (section-5) and I believe will guide you in 11.11.<BR /><BR />On 11.11, use 'kmtune' to view and/or set kernel parameters.<BR /><BR />Regards!<BR /><BR />...JRF...

The server is part of a two-node ServiceGuard cluster. It runs as an NIS master server, and is also running Samba and Postgres daemons. The server in question was recently upgraded with a cumulative patch medium installation. <BR /><BR />If there is any further detail needed, please let me know. Thanks. <BR /><BR /> Mon, 15 Nov 2010 17:56:32 GMT https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-hp-ux/tcpd-thread-create-thread-create-failed-12-error/m-p/4713531#M385257 Andrew Kaplan 2010-11-15T17:56:32Z https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-hp-ux/tcpd-thread-create-thread-create-failed-12-error/m-p/4713532#M385258 Hi Andrew:<BR /><BR />You might have a look at the kernel parameters 'nkthread' and 'max_thread_proc'.
