setting file descriptors?

HP-UX 11.00

How does one set the file descriptors to 4096 or 10000 or 50000?

I've rebuilt the kernel by hand setting the new value and it seems to work.
But whenever sam is run it can't handle a value above 2048.

Re: setting file descriptors?

Did you also set Maxfiles and Maxfiles_lim
Maxfiles is the soft limit for the number of file descriptors a process can have open.
Maxfiles_lim is the hard limit for the number of file descriptors a process can have open.
Minimum effort maximum output!
