Hello all,
System:
AlphaServer 8400 5/300
4 processors
4 gigabytes of memory
24 gigs of swap.
OSF3.2c
The problem:
Users on this system want to be able to run really large jobs,i.e the
several gigabyte range, but, the kernel has user size limits set to the
following:
cputime unlimited
filesize unlimited
datasize 131072 kbytes
stacksize 2048 kbytes
coredumpsize unlimited
memoryuse 121256 kbytes
descriptors 4096 files
addressspace 1048576 kbytes
>From reading the documentation, I have found that the follwoing parameters
effect these limits.
dfldsiz 134217728
maxdsiz 1073741824
dflssiz 2097152
maxssiz 33554432
maxvas 1073741824 (default value)
maxusers 64
Can anyone tell me the maximum sizes that I can set these to? I don't
expect to have that many users running at anyone time, but the programs that
they do run are big.
Thanks in advance
