Maxuproc not get updated even after reboot
Hi,
Got a update to change the "maxuproc for wt82369 by 1.5 times" , While verifying we make necessary modification on the Global (wt81958).
Normally there is a relation between max_nprocs value and maxuproc value.
FYI..
maxuprc = max_nprocs – reserved_procs (default is 5)
In this case we modified the max_nprocs value from 30000 to 50000
FYI..
[root@wt81958 GLOBAL] /etc # cat /etc/system | grep max_nprocs
set max_nprocs=50000
After the global zone reboot the value is not updated while we hit sysdef
[root@wt81958 GLOBAL] /root # sysdef | grep processes
30000 maximum number of processes (v.v_proc)
29995 maximum processes per user id (v.v_maxup)
Can anyone please assist us if any thing we missed in this to make the necessary changes to replicate.
Awaiting for your valuable suggestions.
Thanks,
senthilsam
Solaris/OS related problem as Marianne mentioned ie: not Storage Foundation related.
... however, the following details from the Solaris Tunable Parameters Reference Manual may assist (Chapter 2 Oracle Solaris Kernel Tunable Parameters - Process Sizing Parameters):
max_nprocs
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E19082-01/819-2724/chapter2-8/index.html--------------------
Validation
Yes. The value is compared to maxpid and set to maxpid if it is larger. On x86 platforms, an additional check is made against a platform-specific value. max_nprocs is set to the smallest value in the triplet (max_nprocs, maxpid, platform value). Both SPARC and x86 platforms use 65,534 as the platform value.
--------------------pidmax
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E19082-01/819-2724/chapter2-107/index.html
--------------------
Description
Specifies the value of the largest possible process ID. Valid for Solaris 8 and later releases.
pidmax sets the value for the maxpid variable. Once maxpid is set, pidmax is ignored. maxpid is used elsewhere in the kernel to determine the maximum process ID and for validation checking.
Any attempts to set maxpid by adding an entry to the /etc/system file have no effect.
[...]
Default
30,000
[...]
Implicit
max_nprocs range checking ensures that max_nprocs is always less than or equal to this value.
When to Change
Required to enable support for more than 30,000 processes on a system.
