Hi All
I am kinda wondering about the UX kernel parameters, how we configure and why do we configure ???.. especially the 'semaphores'. Could somebody throw some light on this and would really appreciate it.
The database server operation requires one UNIX semaphore for each virtual processor, one for each user who connects to the database server through shared memory (ipcshm protocol), six for database server utilities, and sixteen for other purposes.
you set it in /etc/system in solaris (hope u r using solaris )
