Hi!
I recently upgraded a DEC Personal Workstatio 500 a.u. to 1.5 Gbyte
memory. However, we still can't run jobs bigger then 1 Gbyte. The
error message is "not enough virtual memeory". So i checked the hard
limits for the system by "limit -h" in the tcshell:
> limit -h
cputime unlimited
filesize unlimited
datasize 1048576 kbytes
stacksize 32768 kbytes
coredumpsize unlimited
memoryuse 1532328 kbytes
vmemoryuse 1048576 kbytes
descriptors 4096
How can I change the limit for "vmemoryuse"? Or is it hardwired into
the kernel? There is a 383Mbyte partition on the system disk plus an
entire 4Gbyte disk for swap;
> swapon -s
Swap partition /dev/rz16b (default swap):
Allocated space: 49149 pages (383MB)
In-use space: 1 pages ( 0%)
Free space: 49148 pages ( 99%)
Swap partition /dev/rz18c:
Allocated space: 555960 pages (4343MB)
In-use space: 1 pages ( 0%)
Free space: 555959 pages ( 99%)
Total swap allocation:
Allocated space: 605109 pages (4727MB)
Reserved space: 127807 pages ( 21%)
In-use space: 2 pages ( 0%)
Available space: 477302 pages ( 78%)
How can I convince the system to run jobs bigger than 1Gbyte (but less
than 1.5 Gbyte)? We are currently running Digital UNIX 4.0C.
Thanks in advance, /Andre
