Kernel Question on HP-UX 11.23 Itanium/rx3300 server

[Mike_305]

Hello,

I am trying to find following kernel parameter in HP-UX 11.23 and I can't see them in kernel configs.

maxswapchunks

ncallout

semmap

Any idea?

Appreciate everyone’s help in advance.

Thanks

Hi:

You can't see these kernel parameters because they have been deprecated at 11.23.

Hi,


maxswapchunks + ncallout
---
it is no longer necessary for you to tune the ncallout and maxswapchunks kernel
parameters. In HP-UX 11i v1.6, the HP-UX kernel automatically adjusts the data
structures previously controlled by these parameters. The ncallout and maxswapchunks
kernel parameters are no longer â tunableâ .

semmap obsoleted 11.23
---
System-V IPC Kernel Tunable Parameter (semmap)(Obsolete): The memory
allocation of semaphore sets previously controlled by semmap is now done
dynamically by the kernel. The semmap kernel parameter is no longer tunable.

Hello,

I know I can count on JRF for the answer, but any new replacement. Because they are coming up in Oracle install.

Thanks

oracle has a bad habit of being behind in what it's installer thinks is required. This includes patches and kernel parameters. Ignore what doesn't exist.
