I need to apply an Oracle patch on a V5.1 Tru64 server that I recently
became responsible for. Oracle says I need to increase my data and memory
ulimits. I was able to increase the data limit, but when attempting to
increase the memory ulimit I get:
server prompt> ulimit -m 2045680
ksh: ulimit: exceeds allowable limit
It is my understanding that max_per_proc_address_space is the kernel setting
for the hard limit, but it is set to 4,294,967,296. Searches on Google and
Oracle's knowledge base have not been fruitful. What am I missing? Thanks
in advance.
server prompt> ulimit -a
time(seconds) unlimited
file(blocks) unlimited
data(kbytes) 1048576
