System Parameters

[yck]

System parameter can be determine by SAM -> Kernel Configuration -> Configuration Parameters.

However, is that any other ways to determine the system parameters? What I means is ,is that a files that keep values of 97 system parameters inside HP-UX 10.2 machine?

Thanks

Kernel configuration, including the configurable parameters is done from the /stand/system file. This is an ASCII file that you can view. Just don't modify unless you intend to generate a new kernel.

Hi,

The /stand/system file more or less will
only display the values that have been
changed from default. This applys to both
HP-UX 10.20 and 11. Dependiong on how the
SA does their changes system files can be
found in /stand/build also. To generate a
new system file,

# cd /stand/build
# /usr/lbin/sysadm/system_prep -s system
# view system

There is no danger is changing the files, but be aware that any changes that are mad could confuse somebody else.

The full listing of kernel paramters can be found in

/usr/conf/master.d/core-hpux
from about line 196
or
/var/sam/boot.config
start looking from 'tag Tunables:' at about line
1460.

Besides the already posted information, I think you are looking for the sysdef command. See the sysdef(1M) manual page for details.
