Tunable Parameters

You probably need to reconfigure the platform kernel before running BEA Tuxedo software because the default values of some tunable parameters are too low.

To adjust the tunable parameters, follow these steps:

  1. Determine whether the current values are adequate.
  2. For instructions about determining whether the current tunable parameter values are adequate, see IPC Resource Configuration on a UNIX System and Checking IPC Requirements.

  3. Reset the tunable parameters as necessary.

Mounting and Unmounting the CD for AIX 5.3 (32-bit)

To mount a CD, examine the file /etc/filesystems to determine whether there is a standard place in which to mount a CD. If there is, enter the mount command and specify the directory named in the /etc/filesystems entry.

For example, to mount a CD when an entry in /etc/filesystems specifies /cd as the mount point, enter:

su
/usr/sbin/mount /cd

If /etc/filesystems does not contain a CD entry, enter:

su
mkdir /cd
/usr/sbin/mount -v cdrfs -r cd_device /cd

In the latter command line, cd_device represents the name of the CD device file, typically /dev/cd0.

Alternatively, you can use the System Management Interface Tool (SMIT) to perform the mount. To use SMIT, enter the following:

smit mount

To unmount the CD, enter the following command:

unmount /cd

In this command line cd represents the mount point.

Network Requirements for IBM AIX 6.1 (32-bit)

Disk Space Requirements for IBM AIX 6.1 (32-bit)

For all install sets and components, 165,592 KB is the minimum disk space requirement for installation on IBM AIX 6.1 (32-bit) IBM PowerPC systems. This requirement assumes installation of the default components for the selected install set.

Mounting and Unmounting the CD for AIX 6.1 (32-bit)

To mount a CD, examine the file /etc/filesystems to determine whether there is a standard place in which to mount a CD. If there is, enter the mount command and specify the directory named in the /etc/filesystems entry.

For example, to mount a CD when an entry in /etc/filesystems specifies /cd as the mount point, enter:

su
/usr/sbin/mount /cd

If /etc/filesystems does not contain a CD entry, enter:

su
mkdir /cd
/usr/sbin/mount -v cdrfs -r cd_device /cd

In the latter command line, cd_device represents the name of the CD device file, typically /dev/cd0.

Alternatively, you can use the System Management Interface Tool (SMIT) to perform the mount. To use SMIT, enter the following:

smit mount

To unmount the CD, enter the following command:

unmount /cd

In this command line cd represents the mount point.

Tunable Parameters for IBM AIX 6.1 (32-bit)

No IPC configuration is required for AIX. To check the value of a kernel tuning parameter (maxuproc only) enter the following command: lsattr -El sys0 -a maxuproc.

To change the value of a kernel tuning parameter (maxuproc only) enter the following command: chdev -l syso -a maxuproc=”,,,” or can enter smit chgsys and select “maximum number of processes allowed per user.
