pid number creation rules on aix

Hello,

On a AIX 5.3.5.0 server, we have PID exceeding 999999. This cause some troubles in our programms.

I would like to know the process creation rules on aix :
- what is the maximum pid number ?
- what is the wrap limit on aix, and where to find it, how to configure pid wrap limit ?
- How pid are attributed ?
-...

thank you.
