Hi all,
a couple of quickies. Is there any documentation which describes
the mapping between entries in the kernel config and those listed in
/etc/sysconfigtab and dxkerneltuner? I've been sent some settings from a 3rd
party and I think they've got their wires crossed as they are quoting stuff like
set maxdsiz to <some value> in the kernel config
and then later on saying
set max-per-proc-data-size to <some other value> in /etc/sysconfigtab
I am guessing but I think these two refer to same parameter.. if anyone knows of
a doc which shows all the naming conventions for these kernel subsystems can
they direct me to it...
I am certain that editing of the kernel config these days has been deprecated
and all edits should really go into /etc/sysconfigtab which takes precedence
over the kernel config file when reading settings anyway...
Secondly I was wondering about setting of maxusers (normally you'd define this
based on the amount of physical memory in your box). I have an ES40 model 2 with
4gb of RAM, same for swap and 2 x 833mhz ev6-7 cpus.
It will be running oracle and a bespoke app.
What what be a recommened setting for Maxusers under a configuration of this
sort? Is there a good rule of thumb for this kind of stuff...
many thanks...
Adam.
