Tunable Parameters and Memory
Guidelines
The following table shows the tunable parameter guidelines for IPC-1600.
IPC-1600 TUNABLE PARAMETERS
| PARAMETER |   |   | SYSTEM MEMORY | 
|   |   |   |   |   |   | 
|   | 2MB |   | 4MB | 8MB | 16 MB+ | 
|   |   |   | 
|   |   |   |   |   |   |   | 
|   |   |   |   |   |   |   | 
| NCLIST |   | 120 |   | 170 | 560 | 1180 | 
| NPROC |   | 100 |   | 150 | 200 | 400 | 
| NREGION |   | 210 |   | 300 | 600 | 1200 | 
|   |   |   |   |   |   |   | 
The installation of the IPC-1600 UNIX system driver and related software is independent of these requirements. However, to obtain proper system performance, these parameters should be adjusted before the installation of the IPC-1600. Refer to the UNIX System V/ 386 Operations/System Administration Guide for additional information and procedures on setting tunable parameters. By adjusting these parameters and then installing the IPC-1600 UNIX system software, only one system reboot is necessary to install both the new tunable parameter data and the IPC-1600 data.
Failure to adjust these parameters may result in table overflow warning messages and poor performance.
