tuning kernels from command line

[Bill McNAMARA_1]

hpux 11.11 offers lot of kernel tuning online
however most is done through sam.
I don't like sam so much especially when
in rescue mode , so rather than recompiling and rebooting off a new kernel how do I dynamically tune the kernel from command line..
similar to the linux cat into /proc/whatever

Later,
Bill

Hi Bill:

Take a look at 'kmtune' (man 1M kmtune). THis allows you to query, set, or reset system parameters.

For networking, the 'ndd' command allows the examination and modification of several tunable parameters that affect networking operation and behavior.
