I have a K460 running HP-UX 11.00 64bit
Memory is 2GB
the shmmax value is set : 3.75GB
shmmni is 512 and shmseg is 50.. is it ok to have shmmax so high?...
The systems is running with UNIDATA.. it works fine except that i see a bunch of defunct processes. Is this related...
please reccomend kernel changes id required..
Thanks in advance

Re: shmmax
It's OK, but kind of pointless, to have it exceed the actual system RAM.
I doubt the defunct processes are related to these values in any way.
My $0.02,

Re: shmmax
I can't imagine any relationship between a high shmmax and defunct process - they're just process that didn't clean up after themselves when they died. A reboot or killing the parent (assuming it's not 1) will clear the defunct processes.
You should be fine.

Re: shmmax
now if you want to go to 11.11, think much bigger
depending on how much shared memory is requested, other programs may not have memory to start in
a better number would probably be 1G
