(Tunable Kernel Parameters)

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
