Hi managers,
My company is currently using an AlphaServer ES40 running Tru64 Unix 4.0F.
We have some strange problem with the number of pty available...
Here is the configuration :
- MAKEDEV run all the targets from PTY_1 to PTY_9
(create 816 /dev/pty... and more than 2000 /dev/tty...)
- the current sysconfig for pts is below ...
pts:
nptys = 8192
Sometimes we cannot login with error "Out of ptys" (rsh, telnet or new xterm
or dtterm)
When I list open files with lsof, I can find about 300 /dev/pty open but
never over the current number of existing "/dev/pty..." (~800).
The maximum total number of process that I can see is (more or less) 500...
Any idea would be helpfull :-)
thanks in advance
Jerome
