Rebuild Kernel

When attempting to increase maxusers and rebuild the kernel I receive the following error in SAM. Can anyone help?

Cannot build a kernel using /usr/sbin/config. The standard output of the command is shown below:
config: error in opening file --tune.h

The command exitted with exitcode -71.

Re: Rebuild Kernel

Hi,

According the man page for config, /stand/build/tune.h is the "default output system parameter table".

Make sure that the stand filesystem is not full. If it isn't, check the permissions on the /stand/build directory. Also, make sure stand was not mounted readonly. If all else fails, I would run fsck on stand or wait for another response. :)

Re: Rebuild Kernel

Bruce may have nailed the problem, but here's one more thing to check...

Make sure it's not missing these ~tune.h files:
/usr/conf/space.h.d/fs-tune.h scsi-tune.h vm-tune.h

I say this because when building a kernel it will look for certain files under /usr/conf.

Just a thought,
Rita
