(Tunable Kernel Parameters)
Some of these other tunables used to adjust automatically with changes in
nproc
. These adjustments
must now be made explicitly.
Other tunables may require a reboot to take effect. So, dramatic increases in nproc without reboot should
be made with caution.
WARNINGS
All HP-UX kernel tunable parameters are release specific. This parameter may be removed or have its
meaning changed in future releases of HP-UX.
Installation of optional kernel software, from HP or other vendors, may cause changes to tunable parame-
ter values. After installation, some tunable parameters may no longer be at the default or recommended
values. For information about the effects of installation on tunable values, consult the documentation for
the kernel software being installed. For information about optional kernel software that was factory
installed on your system, see HP-UX Release Notes at
http://docs.hp.com
