Kernel Parameters

Cindy Yoho — Tue, 14 May 2002 16:01:44 GMT

Where can I get a good definition (better than SAM) for the configurable kernel parameters in HP-UX 11.0? I have a renegade parameter in my list called disksort_seconds, which appears on one 11.0 server but not the other. The Description field (in SAM) just lists "unknown" for this parameter...

Here's the list of all configurable kernel parameters for HP-UX 11.0.
http://docs.hp.com/hpux/onlinedocs/os/KCparams.OverviewAll.html

Have a look at TKB document KBRC00009038 for more information on this issue as well.

I have also attached it for your convenience.

Hi Cindy:

disksort_seconds - Maximum wait time for disk requests.

You may find the information about all new parameters in the 11.11 documents:

http://www.docs.hp.com/hpux/onlinedocs/TKP-90202/TKP-90202.html

Also check this document too:

These guys are great. Thanks again. I have determined that I need the disksort_algorithm patch as well as the SAM patch that defines the disksort_seconds parameter. Iam a happy camper!
