Limiting number of processes per user
I know maxuprc can limmit the proccess for users, this limit is the same limit for all users.
How could I define different limit of processes allowed to different users?
Is it possible at OS level?
Does exist a tool for doing this? Can this be done with gWLM?
I will apprecite your help.
Regards.

Re: Limiting number of processes per user
Yes,
It is called maxuprc.
By default it is set to 75.
That applies to all users.
Except root.
Problem is it is system wide, and can not be set for individual users.
Setting it to say 10 would prevent oracle from running a database since the oracle user for any server usually requires more processes than that.

Re: Limiting number of processes per user
That would set it on a system wide basis. However, the question is: can it be done on a user by user basis and I know of no way to accomplish that.

Re: Limiting number of processes per user
Are you attempting to limit the number of CPU cycles any given user can take?
If yes, then absolutely a gWLM policy could do this, as could PRM...

Yes: a Baseball Bat.
Threaten the users.
Make them behave!
or, as Duncan mentioned: HP Process Resource Manager
:-)
