Hi,


I have HP -Visualize C3000 It's running HP-UX 11.11, I need to install a program that's requires some Kernel modifications:

eg: the variables should be have follow values:

maxdsiz = 65536 Pages
maxtsiz = 32768 Pages

output of commands "kmtune" and "sysdef"

KMTUNE:

maxdsiz 2147400000 - 2147400000
maxdsiz_64bit 2147400000 - 2147400000

maxtsiz 1073696768 Y 1073696768
maxtsiz_64bit 0x40000000 Y 0X0000000040000000

SYSDEF:

maxdsiz 2 - 0-655360 Pages -
maxdsiz_64bit 262133 - 256-1048576 Pages -

maxtsiz 20480 - 0-655360 Pages -
maxtsiz_64bit 2048 - 256-1048576 Pages -

Why sysdef and kmtune commands are returning different values for the maxdsiz and maxtsiz parameters ?

How do I change this values?

I have been used SAM for change values, but it in pages do not have changed.

Thanks for help.

Best Regards
 
prob a silly question - but you've rebooted after installing the new kernel yes? Mike

anwsering your question: yes..every time
 
Ah... oh well, worth asking.

Not sure why, but I have known sysdef to be incorrect. kmtune should be displaying the correct value. It's pulling the values from the same place as SAM.

If you want to change these values in SAM, convert pages to bytes.

65536 pages * 4096 bytes/page = 268435456 bytes = 0x10000000 bytes.

Does that help?
 
Hi Mike,

I have done this.

I did this changes, I have been converted pages to bytes, but the values in pages do not change.


The values in SAM it's correct, but in pages it's wrong.

maxdsiz 2 - 0-655360 Pages -
maxdsiz_64bit 262133 - 256-1048576 Pages -

Thanks for help.

Waiting for reply.

Fernando
