ulimit problem

[Murat SULUHAN]

Hi

our rp5470 system has these values about ulimit

# ulimit -a
time(seconds) unlimited
file(blocks) unlimited
data(kbytes) 1048576
stack(kbytes) 131072
memory(kbytes) unlimited
coredump(blocks) 4194303
nofiles(descriptors) 2048

How can I set ulimit's nofiles(descriptors) value to 8192

Best Regards
Murat

hi,

you may do so at SAM.

sam -> Kernel Configuration -> Configurable Parameters -> maxfiles_lim and maxfiles

you should see maxfiles as 2048, so please set maxfiles to 8192 and maxfiles_lim higher.

regards.

Murat,

11.0 or 11.i ?

ulimit -n 8192

However, there is a maximum limit specified by the kernel parameter "maxfiles_lim". Although you can set it higher than this limit using the above command, it probably won't work if the parameter isn't set high enough.

I think best palce is to set at kernel
maxfiles_lim.

Thanks,

Hi all

my ux version is 11.00

I changed maxfiles and maxfiles_lim parameters then reboot

Now

# ulimit -a
time(seconds) unlimited
file(blocks) unlimited
data(kbytes) 1048576
stack(kbytes) 131072
memory(kbytes) unlimited
coredump(blocks) 4194303
nofiles(descriptors) 8192


Thank you so much
