Add these two lines to /etc/sysctl.conf:

    kernel.shmmax = 2147483648
    kernel.sem = 100 32000 100 100

Issue the command (as root) "/sbin/sysctl -e -p /etc/sysctl.conf" to set the kernel parameters via sysctl.conf

You can verify the settings with "cat /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax" and cat /proc/sys/kernel/sem"

These kernel parameters will automatically initialize upon reboot. Received on Sun Jul 27 2003 - 18:06:34 CDT
