Hewlett-Packard HP/9000 with HP-UX 11.0 and 11i

General Information

To download supported releases for this platform, see Download WebLogic Server for Your Platform.
For general information about HP-UX, see the Hewlett-Packard website.
The HP-UX 11.0 default value for maximum threads per process is 64, which may be too low for the WebLogic Server and many Java server applications in general. When the value is too low, your WebLogic Server may have problems starting up.
We recommend that you use the maximum kernel setting for the max_thread_proc and maxusers parameters. Setting maxusers to a higher value increases other machine-wide limits, such as nkthread (the maximum number of kernel threads). For example, we have reconfigured our kernel as follows:

Table 5-1 Recommended HP-UX 11.0 Kernel Settings

Parameter	Old Value	New Value	Description
`max_thread_proc`	64	1024	Maximum threads per process
`maxfiles`	60	256	Soft file limit per process
`maxusers`	32	256	Influences other parameters
`nkthread`	499	3635	Number of threads total on the system
`nproc`	276	2068	Maximum number of processes
`ncallout`	292	2084	Number of pending timeouts
