Setting HP-UX Kernel parameters
Depending upon the number of users you have, the following sample kernel parameters *might* work for you ...
4-users 16usrs 32users 64users
nfile 1000 4000 8000 16000
nflocks 500 4000 8000 16000
ninode 750 3000 6000 12000
maxfiles 512 2048 4096 8192
maxfiles lim 1024 2048 4096 8192
semmnu 30 48 96 192
nfile - 1 for each file opened by each user on the system
nflocks - nfile + 1 for each locked record on the system
maxfiles - 1 for each file opened by a given user
semmnu - 1 for each APPX session (user or background)
Customers need to add a lot of padding and figure out what they think they need.
Requirements will vary with user load and the type of application being used.These are starting values only, and depending on how complex your apps are, what else is going on on that system, how many users there are, etc., the proper values may be higher in your specific situation. Since memory is much cheaper and thus much more available these days, increasing these parameters beyond the base values given in the table above shouldn't have an adverse impact on your system, but start with the values above initially, and increase them if there are problems opening files, locking records, etc. (resource issues that indicate one of HP-UX's tables is too small for the amount of activity on the system).
