maxdsiz and maxdsiz_64bit

[Joel Bortolotto Almeida]

I have an L2000/440 whith HP-UX 11.00.
When I run the command "sysdef", the result is like :
NAME VALUE BOOT MIN-MAX UNITS FLAGS
maxdsiz 0 - 0-655360 Pages -
maxssiz 0 - 0-655360 Pages -
maxtsiz 0 - 0-655360 Pages -


When I run HP-UX in machine with 64-bit processor, the parameter maxdsiz don?t have any function ? Only maxdsiz_64bit have?

Hi Joel:

Yes, 'maxdsiz' defines the maximum size of the static data segment of a process for a 32-bit processor and 'maxdsiz_64bit' defines the maximum size of the same for a 64-bit processor.

THe maxdsiz, maxssiz, maxtsiz define the limits for 32-bit executables while the _64 values define the 64-bit executable values.

The problem with the sysdef display is a known bug. See:
