Configuring Kernel Parameters on HP-UX Itanium Systems

These topics explain how to configure kernel parameters manually for HP-UX Itanium systems if you cannot complete them using the fixup scripts.

  • Minimum Parameter Settings for Installation
    Use this table to set parameters manually if you cannot use the fixup scripts. Verify that the kernel parameters are set to values greater than or equal to the minimum values shown in the following table.
  • Checking Kernel Parameter Values
    Use the kcweb application to check and modify the formula or value kernel parameters on an HP-UX Itanium system.
  • Setting UDP and TCP Kernel Parameters Manually
    If you do not use a Fixup script or CVU to set ephemeral ports, then set TCP/IP ephemeral port range parameters to provide enough ephemeral ports for the anticipated server workload.
