This article describes how to change particular operating system kernel parameters on an HP machine to make WebSphere Application Server run effectively. To set kernel parameters, perform the following steps:
*range maxfiles<=2048to
*range maxfiles<=60000
*range maxfiles_lim<=2048to
*range maxfiles_lim<=60000
Alternatively, you can enter the following command to rebuild the boot.config file:
# /usr/sam/lbin/getkinfo -b
If other information windows open, requesting information particular to your installation, follow the on-screen instructions to restart your machine and to enable the new settings to take effect.
Alternatively, use the HPjconfig configuration utility available from the Java products for HP-UX Web site at www.hp.com/go/java. This pure Java application provides kernel parameter recommendations tailored to your specific Java enterprise services and HP-UX hardware platform. It supports only selected machine types, however. Refer to the information on this Web site to verify that your machine is suppported and for instructions on downloading and installing the utility.
