     Hi osf managers:
     
     
     I need to change open-max-soft, open-max-hard and maxusers parameters
     in our DEC 2100A 5/300 with Digital UNIX V3.2G.
     
     Last Wed Jun 4 we changed those parameters in /sys/include/sys/param.h
     file and maxusers parameter in /sys/conf/<machine-name> file . We ran
     doconfig -c <machine-name> command and reboot the machine.
     
     The maxuser parameter changed ok, but the others didn't get the new
     values. After that we tried to change them with :
     
     # dbx -k /vmunix
     (dbx) assign open-max-hard=8192
     
     
     and here is my problem :
     
     
     (dbx) p open-max-hard -----> shows 8192
     
     # sysconfig -q proc -----> shows 8192
     
     # ulimit -a -----> shows 4096 (old value)
     
     
     Does open-max-hard parameter change really its value ?
     If didn't ... Is there any other way to change this parameters ?
     
     
     Thanks in Advance for your time and yours comments.
