Support for 3000 NS Servers
By Prashanth Bhat K, Commercial Systems Division
Background
Prior to the 7.5 release, a maximum of 2600 NS servers could be created using the nscontrolcommand. With
this change the number of simultaneous servers on MPE/iX 7.5 onwards has increased to 3300. This limit can
only be achieved on systems where the BIGPIN ( greater than 8190 system wide process) enhancement is
enabled.
Solution Objective
To increase the maximum number of NS Servers from 2600 to 3300.
How to Increase the Limit
Now the nscontrol command can take the maxservers value as 3300. The command to do it is:
nscontrol server={server type}{,minservers},3300
Here, server type can be any of the servers supported by NS services.
