Configuring kernel parameter for processes per user

Oracle 10g requires that the AIX configurable kernel parameter that specifies the maximum number of processes per user is greater than 2048. The value must be the same on each of the cluster nodes.

 To configure maximum processes per user

1. Check the current value by entering the command:

   # smitty chgsys

2. Examine the value of the kernel parameter:

   Maximum number of PROCESSES allowed per user

   If necessary, change the value to be 2048 or greater.

3. Press F10 to exit when you are done.
4. Use the previous steps to check that the value is the same on each cluster node.
